Second Exercise grading

Post date: Mar 27, 2012 10:01:59 PM

Dear all,

I am currently grading your papers on the 2nd practical exercise. It gives me some thoughts on what to discuss in the next class, such as:

1. What is it we are calculating (G+C% or CpG)?

2. How many introns does S. cerevisiae have? How many gene regulatory regions?

3. What is the mean and the sd of a distribution (revision)

4. Spelling mistakes (they don't count but they DO matter!)

5. How could we check the "correlation" between regulatory regions and genes? (since some of you brought this up)

6. Does anyone read the Introduction of these papers?
