Which of the following is untrue about Ab Initio–Based Programs for Gene Prediction?


aThe goal of the ab initio gene prediction programs is to discriminate exons from noncoding sequences

✖


bThe goal is joining exons together in the correct order

✖


cThe main difficulty is correct identification of exons

✖


dTo predict exons, the algorithms rely solely on gene signals

Which of the following is untrue about translation and transcription?


aThe first is capping is at the 5’ end of the transcript which involves methylation at the initial residue of the RNA

✖


bThe splicing process involves a large RNA-protein complex called spliceosome

✖


cThe second event is splicing, which is the process of removing exons and joining introns

✓


dThe second event is splicing, which is the process of removing introns and joining exons

Because different prediction programs have different levels of sensitivity and specificity, it makes sense to combine results of multiple programs based on consensus. This idea has prompted development of consensus-based algorithms.

Which of the following is untrue about SGP-1?


aThe program translates all potential exons in each sequence and does pair wise alignment for the translated protein sequences using a dynamic programming approach

✖


bThe near-perfect matches at the protein level define coding regions

✖


c It is a similarity-based web program that aligns two genomic DNA sequences from distinctly related organisms

✓


dIt stands for Syntenic Gene Prediction

✖



Which of the following is untrue about EST2Genome?


aIt is a web-based program purely based on the sequence alignment approach to define intron–exon boundaries

✖


bIt compares an EST (or cDNA) sequence with a genomic DNA sequence containing the corresponding gene

✖


cThe alignment is rarely done using a dynamic programming–based algorithm

✓


dAdvantage of the approach is the ability to find very small exons and alternatively spliced exons that are very difficult to predict by any ab initio–type algorithms

✖



GenomeScan is a web-based server that combines GENSCAN prediction results with BLASTX similarity searches.
