Exercise 2/2. Find a 3D of a polyQ ortholog
Go to FASTAHERDER2: Find a cluster containing polyQ and a PDB using mode 4 Find the structure surrounding the place of polyQ insertion Any problems?

Exercise 2/2. Find a 3D of a polyQ ortholog
Go to FASTAHERDER2: Find a cluster containing polyQ and a PDB using mode 4 Find the structure surrounding the place of polyQ insertion Any problems? If yes, then use this example: Species: “Escherichia coli”, PDB “yes”, and polyQ “yes” Get the E. coli sequence and the one with polyQ and align them. Can you see the polyQ insertions? Compare to PDB:4JNF (from DNAK_ECOLI P0A6Y8)
