Team I Gene Prediction Group

Introduction What is Prokaryotic Gene feature Prokaryotic genes have relatively well-understood promoter sequence, such as regulatory sequence, which can regulate the transcription of the gene into an mRNA. Each prokaryotic gene has open reading frames(ORF) which start with start codons and end with end codons with no interruptions(end-codons) in-between, so it can provide a good, but not assured prediction of the protein coding regions.
