overexpressed in nervous tissue cancers, breast cancers, and soft tissue tumors at a frequency of 10-25%. Obtain the sequence of the human paralog MDM4 and the mouse paralog MDM4 and perform multiple sequence alignment together with the original five MDM2 sequences listed in problem 2. Give amino acid ranges of the domains (in human MDM2 amino acid numbers) that are highly conserved within sequences of this entire homolog family. 4. The quagga is an animal indigenous to Africa that is now extinct. It looked partly like a donkey and partly like a zebra. In 1872, the last living quagga was photographed. Mitochondrial DNA was ob- tained from a museum quagga specimen and sequenced. a. Perform a BLAST search with the quagga (Equus burchellii quagga) mitochondrial 125 ribosomal DNA query and find out if the quagga is more closely related to the donkey (Equus asinus) or the zebra (Equus zebra). Support your answer with data. b. Perform a Clustal analysis of mitochondria 12S ribosomal DNA sequences from the three species. Along with the outputted multiple sequence alignment an identity matrix is created. Use the identity matrix to confirm the conclusion you made from the BLAST analysis in part a.
