Sequence searches
Several different tools were used in order to look for sequences that are related to glucocerebrosidase in the non-redundant sequence database.
- FASTA
- As Fasta was not initially installed, it was downloaded from the EBI FTP Download Site <ref>ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/software/unix/fasta/fasta36/</ref>.
- Command:
../bin/fasta36 gbaseq.fasta /data/blast/nr/nr > fasta_gba_search.out
- BLAST
- Command:
blastall -p blastp -d /data/blast/nr/nr -i gbaseq.fasta -o blast.out
- PSI-BLAST
- This tool was used 4 times with all different combinations of 3 or 5 iterations (x) and an E-value cut-off (y) of 0.005 or 10e-6.
- Command:
blastpgp -d /data/blast/nr/nr -i gbaseq.fasta -o psi_blast_x_y.out -j x -h y
Furthermore the online version of HHSearch <ref>http://toolkit.lmb.uni-muenchen.de/hhpred</ref> was used to search against the pdb70 database of May 14th.
Results
The sequence search with FASTA returned 520 sequences. BLAST, as well as the different PSI-BLAST runs returned 500 sequences. The search with HHSearch against the pdb database only resulted in 100 sequences.
Overlap
The overlaps between the results of the different tools (FASTA, BLAST, 4 PSI-BLAST runs) have been investigated and are visualized using Venn-Diagrams (created with <ref>http://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be/webtools/Venn/</ref>). The results of HHSearch are not included as a different database (pdb70) was used and therefore the results can not be compared.
In total, the 6 different sequence searches returned 626 unique sequences whereof 405 sequences were returned by each of the searches and 41 were only found by a single one. There were no sequences which have only been found by PSI-BLAST runs with 3 iterations whereas FASTA returned 25 sequences that have not been found by any other tool. These numbers indicate that the different sequence searches return very similar sequences and that each of the tools could be used to retrieve the related sequences of glucocerebrosidase.
Sequence Identity
As BLAST only shows details for the 250 "best" alignments, the sequence identitiy could only be analyzed for the 250 first sequences.
Identity | BLAST | PSI-BLAST 3 iterations e-value cutoff 0.005 |
PSI-BLAST 3 iterations e-value cutoff 10e-6 |
PSI-BLAST 5 iterations e-value cutoff 0.005 |
PSI-BLAST 5 iterations e-value cutoff 10e-6 |

Discussion
Multiple sequence alignments
Sequences used for multiple sequence alignments
For the multiple sequence alignments we used our reference sequence and twenty sequences we had found with sequence searches. We tried to avoid hypothetical sequences and tried to take sequences, that have similiar identities in all sequence searches. The following tables show the chosen sequences with their identities in the different searches. We only found one pdb structure (which was also in the HSSP database).
our reference sequence: P04062, GLCM_HUMAN Glucosylceramidase
