If the data set is _______ then unless the motif has __________ amino acids in each column, the column frequencies in the motif may not be highly representative of all other occurrences of the motif.


asmall, distinct


bsmall, almost identical


clarge, almost identical


d large, distinct



If a good sampling of sequences is _______ the number of sequences is _________ and the motif structure is ________ it should, in principle, be possible to obtain frequencies highly representative of the same motif in other sequences also.


a available, sufficiently large, not too complex


bunavailable, sufficiently large, not too complex


cunavailable, sufficiently small, not too complex


davailable, sufficiently large, too complex



Two considerations arise in trying to tune the PSSM so that it adequately represents the training sequences. Which of the following is not their description?


aIf a given column in 20 sequences has only isoleucine, it is not very likely that different amino acid will be found in other sequences with that motif because the residue is probably important for function


bIf a given column in 20 sequences has only isoleucine, it is very likely that different amino acid will be found in other sequences with that motif because the residue is probably important for function


cIf the number of sequences with the found motif is large and reasonably diverse, the sequences represent a good statistical sampling of all sequences that are ever likely to be found with that same motif


dAnother column in the motif from the 20 sequences may have several amino acids, and some amino acids may not be represented at all
