Journal Week 4 - Nicole Kalcic


Our Favorite Gene Page

Eddie and Nicole's Zip File

Electronic Laboratory Notebook

My homework partner, Eddie Bachoura, and I selected ACT1 as our favorite gene during class. We liked that we were familiar with it because of the demonstration during class. Due to our schedules, Eddie and I weren't able to meet in person. However, we texted throughout the week and decided to split the assignment up based on our individual strengths. Because Eddie is a computer science major, he did most of the coding and dealt with Bootstrap in our to construct our webpage. He kept me updated so I knew how that side of the project was coming along and so that I could understand what he was doing. I began to research information to answer the assignment questions and fill out the page. I created a GoogleDoc so that Eddie and I would both be able to access the information as I added to it. I used SGD, NCBI Gene Database, Ensemble, and UniProt. SGD ended up giving me the most information, but with help from all four websites, I was able to compile all of the data that we needed to complete the assignment. I searched through Google to find an interesting picture to use, but eventually I settled on a screenshot of an interactive map on SGD that I thought was interesting.
