1. Genomics An Introduction to Genomics Lab

2. BIO 481/Genomics :: Goals Determine all or part of the genome sequence of a novel organism Create a shotgun sequencing library Assemble sequence reads into contigs Analyse and annotate the sequence Genes (protein coding, pseudogenes, tRNAs, etc)‏ Sequence motifs (direct repeats, inverted repeats, palindromes, etc)‏

3. What to sequence? Why a phage? Biological importance Cost Technical simplicity Safety Why a phage of mycobacteria? Useful to other scientists Comparative genomics

4. There are an estimated 10 31 bacteriophages in the world! 10,000,000,000,000, 000,000,000,000, 000,000 Phage Facts

5. As many seconds as if the entire world population counted 1 number per second for 50 trillion years. As many words spoken if every person in the world spoke their daily quota for 1.487 trillion years. As many as the miles of the distance of 5.8 hundred trillion times around the planet Jupiter. As many as the dollars it would take for the entire world population to pay back the national debt 250 billion times. As many as the number of metric tons of 1.8 billion earths. Phage Facts

6. As many as the picometers to measure the distance of 21 ½ trips from Jacksonville, Florida to Juneau, Alaska. As many as the miles of 425 billion round trips to the nearest galaxy, the Andromeda Galaxy. As many as milliliters of water as the daily amount of water to pass through a human intestine of the entire world population at the rate of 9 liters/day for 50 trillion years. As many as the number of words if you typed 1 quadrillion words/minute for 3.29 quadrillion years. As many as the number of base pairs as found in all human cells in the total world population.

8. Of interest as tools to study their important bacterial hosts (M. tuberculosis, M. leprae, M. avium, etc)‏ Not anticipated to be systematically different from phage of other hosts Isolated as plaque formers on lawns of M. smegmatis Isolated by direct plating: No amplification Have complete sequences for 50 genomes; 30 studied in further detail Mycobacteriophages
