Are genes equally reparted on both strands?

Study this yourself:Download the bsubt_2011.zip file for B. subtilis on the classwebpage, and study the repartition of genes on the genome,relatively to the origin and terminus of replication and the strand.

You will need to know the position of the origin and terminus ofreplication. As a good approximation, use:

Origin : 0 bp

Terminus : 2.1 Mb

Bonus: How to define the two first colonnes of the .ptt file fromthe third one? In ? In another language?

Another way to see it: CDS skew Lactobacillus

plantarum

CDS skew is proportionnal to thenumber of CDS on the ”+”strandminus the number of CDS on the ”-”strand, while going along thegenome.Can you do the same graph for B.subtilis?

Essentiality and the quest for the smallest autonomous

genome

2 main approaches:

By deletion : define all essential genes by single deletion,coupled deletion, bioinformatics prediction, and try to deleteall the non-essential genes.

By addition : synthetize an entirely new genome doing onlywhat you want it to do : this is called synthetic biology.

The minimal genome should contain 250-300 genes(estimation from Koonin E., Nature Rev. Micobiol. (2003) 1)
