Tutorial: Protein Family Sorter Service

Overview

This set of short videos provides a step-by-step demonstration of using the PATRIC Protein Family Sorter to analyze protein families across a set of closely related bacterial genomes.

1. Using Global Search (7:37)

2. Creating a genome group (5:01)

3. Submitting a Protein Family Sorter Service analysis job (5:44)

4. Protein Family Sorter tabular results (7:41)

5. Filtering tabular results (8:17)

6. Heatmap filtering (5:02)

7. Heatmap clustering (4:47)

8. Anchoring and downloading heatmap data (6:01)

9. Using the Feature Table and Compare Region Viewer (12:40)

10. Downloading sequences from Feature Table and viewing in the Genome Browser (9:38)

11. BLASTing a genomic region (10:21)
