bioinformatics260:

Searching for ANP in the UCSC Genome database generated many locations for me to examine. I ended up using OMIM to find the official location of the gene for ANP.

I cannot see the picture clearly, but I think the locations are quite close to each other.  I had the problem before, and it was caused by the difference in the reference sequences for this protein.  If the locations are apart, it may because the gene/protein has a few isoforms, which are in different locations on the chromosome.

Integrated gene and species information

bioinformatics260:

We learned this gene has 4,378 bp.

What do you guys think this protein is used for?

This is a very interesting research on how to build a tree mathematically.
