If a geneticist uses the blind approach for sequencing the whole genome of an organism, followed by assignment of function to different segments, the methodology adopted by him is called as:

Options

  1. AGene mapping
  2. BExpressed sequence tags
  3. CBioinformatics
  4. DSequence annotation

Correct answer

D. Sequence annotation

Step-by-step solution

In sequence annotation, the whole set of genome containing all coding and non-coding sequences is sequenced and the functions are assigned to different segments.

It could be used for marking specific features in a DNA, RNA or protein sequence with descriptive information about structure or function.

It helps in describing regions or sites of interest in the protein sequence, such as enzyme active sites, secondary structure or other characteristics reported in the cited references.
