BLAST

The protein sequence for the SDR family member 1 protein being investigated was downloaded from the PDB site, using the accession code 2qq5. This was then iteratively searched in blastp using an offline, non redundant copy of the database produced on the 28th of April 2008.


MULTIPLE SEQUENCE ALIGNMENT

The results from the blast search were then screened and a selection was of these results were used for a multiple sequence alignment using ClustalX. This result was boostrapped using 1000 simulations and these values checked and more sequences were added to improve the resolution of specific branches. A bootstrapped phylogram was produced, as well as a radial tree.
