HW5 Results
Comments
Student results were all over the map. Some found long sequences
(>10), as in #16. Others had worse results with FootPrinter than with
DIALIGN, as in #13; this might have been a result of using
too-large sets of proteins that distort the results, as seen in set 6
match 2. Contrast this with #18, which indicates that FootPrinter
worked better with too-large protein sets than either DIALIGN or
CLUSTALW.
The complexity of motifs found varied. Compare the first and
fourth sets of matches in #26. The first are simple, e.g. GAAAAA,
while the fourth has more complex motifs, e.g. GCGACGGCG.
These observations certainly aren't conclusive; like much else in this
class interpreting the data is harder than producing them! Browse the
results and form your own conclusions.
