Q

This database contain biomolecular data in its original form.

A

Primary databases

19
Q

This database contains information that has been processed and derived from the raw data available in primary database

A

Secondary database

20
Q

Contains data derived from the results of
analyzed primary data or from the raw data.

A

Secondary databases

21
Q

It is a way of rearranging sequences of DNA, RNA, or protein to identify regions of similarity

A

Sequence alignment

22
Q

It is the known sequence

A

reference sequence

23
Q

It is the unknown sequence

A

query sequence

24
Q

give the 2 types of sequence alignment

A

Pairwise and multiple

25
Q

Give the tools used in pairwise

A

EMBOSS Water and BLAST

26
Q

Give the tools used in Multiple Sequence alignment

A

MUSCLE, MAFFT, CLUSTAL Omega

27
Q

A type of pairwise sequence alignment that Matching the residues (bases or amino acids)
of two sequences across their entire length

A

Global Aalignment

28
Q

it Matches the identical sequences from 5’ to 3’

A

Global Alignment

29
Q

The two sequences are treated as potentially equivalent

A

Global Alignment

30
Q

It represents gap, which means there is presence in the first sequence and the second has none

A

dash line

31
Q

it means the first sequence is identical/similar to second sequence

A

Straight line

32
Q

A type of pairwise sequence alignment that Matching of two sequences from regions
which have more similarity with each other

A

Local Alignment

33
Q

In this type of pairwise sequence, the two sequences may or may not be related

A

Local Alignment

34
Q

True or False:
In global alignment, the whole
sequence is aligned, whereas in local alignment, only a portion/part is aligned.

A

True

35
Q

In EMBOSS WATER, dissimilar bases are indicated by?

A

dot

36
Q

It is the analysis of more than two sequences

A

Multiple Alignment Tools

37
Q

It is a multiple sequence alignment tool that is used to directly compare the sequences to one another

A

CLUISTAL OMEGA

38
Q

in clustal omega, same color in one column means?

A

Similar

39
Q

It is a multiple sequence alignment tool that arranges the sequences of DNA, RNA, or protein to identify regions of similarity

A

MUSCLE

40
Q

This tool is used to find regions of local similarity between sequences

A

BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool)

41
Q

It is used to compare the unknown sequence with the database

A

Blast

42
Q

nucleotide to nucleotide aligment

A

Blastn

43
Q

protein to protein alignment

A

Blastp
