Gene matches to maize genomic sequences

Matches to translated sequences

The AZM (Assembled Zea mays) and singleton sequences from maize methylation filtered and high Cot genomic DNA clones were compared to several protein and DNA transcript databases, using BLAT [3]. We searched the TIGR non-redundant amino acid database (nraa), plant Gene Indices, and plant High Throughput cDNAs (HTCs) in GenBank to determine the number of significant hits. Using the comparison process illustrated here, we were able to calculate the number of AZMs and singletons that had a significant match to a protein or other transcript.

Matches to maize characterized proteins

A set of characterized maize proteins was produced from the TIGR non-redundant amino acid database (nraa) by filtering out uncharacterized maize proteins e.g. those proteins described as 'unknown', 'unnamed', 'unassigned', 'hypothetical', etc. We then calculated the number of AZMs and singletons having a significant match to a characterized maize proteins.
