Exercise 1

Starting with the nucleotide sequence of the hpot1 gene (or the amino acid sequence of hPot1) from humans, describe how you would search for a homologous gene (or protein) in another organism whose genome has been sequenced, such as the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Then describe how you would obtain the protein and test it for Pot1 activity.
