Model Microbes and the
Microbial Species Concept
• We are going to employ model microbes
and their genomes to begin to address
the microbial species concept
– What you learned from my presentation is
that such a study requires us to be able to
handle very large databases of sequences
and to compare them between individuals
within a species and between multiple
species
• Our goal is to provide robust answer to
the question “Do microbes adhere to a
Molecular Databases
• The first step in our study is to learn how to find
the existing molecular databases
– In our case, microbial genomes
• Let’s start with an introduction to molecular
databases
– One of the most challenging tasks faced by molecular
biologists comes after the data has been collected
– Data recording, storage, analysis and interpretation
require the use of sophisticated software and hardware
– For example:
• GenBank holds over 130 billion bases
• Genome Project holds over 1,360 complete/incomplete
genomes
Biological databases
• In this portion of
the course, we will
learn how to
negotiate your
way through
massive biological
datasets with ease

What is a biological database?
• A large, organized body of
persistent data
– usually associated with
computerized software designed
to update, query, and retrieve
components of the data stored
within the system
Biological database
– A simple database might be a single file
containing many records, each of which
includes the same set of information
• For example, a record associated with a
nucleotide sequence database typically
contains information such as contact
name, the input sequence with a
description of the type of molecule, the
scientific name of the source organism
from which it was isolated, and often,
literature citations associated with the
sequence

Biological database
–For researchers to benefit from the
data stored in a database, two
additional requirements must be
met:
• easy access to the information
• a method for extracting only that
information needed to answer a
specific biological question
There is an enormous diversity
of molecular databases

tasks and questions listed below
1. NCBI at a glance - what is the mission of NCBI?
2. A science primer - briefly describe each of the science primers
3. Databases and tools - create a list of databases and related
resources described
4. Human genome resources - what sorts of things can you learn at
the HGR site

• Become familiar with the contents
• How many complete microbial genomes are there?
• Do you see a bias in what genomes are available?
– What is gMap?
• What does this tool provide?
• When might it be useful?
• Use Escherichia to view the output of gMap and summarize your
findings
» How many genomes are compared?
» What does hit coverage limit mean?
Exercise 4 cont.
– What is genome ProtMap?
• What does this tool provide?
• When might this feature be useful?
– How many bacterial protein clusters
are known?
• Use COG0539 in ProtMap and summarize
what you find
Exercise 5
• Independent Projects
• You will now be assigned a pair of microbial
species
– Research the basic biology of both species
– Provide a one page summary of what you learn
• Find one genome for each species
– Provide a summary description of these genome
• Include size, number of proteins encoded, base composition,
etc.
• Determine if there are multiple genomes for each
species
– Provide a one page description of how many genomes
are available, how they differ and how they are similar
• Hint, you may have to do some genome comparisons using the
tools you just learned about!

Lab Notebook
• You will create a lab notebook to keep track of
your laboratory exercises and assignment
• For each exercise you should start a new page
and put the exercise “title”, your name and the
date
– Include enough information about the exercise so that
someone who picks up your notebook could repeat
your investigations
• In other words, just labeling the parts 1, 2, etc. won’t do it
– Explain what you are doing and how you do it
• Provide detailed information about the steps you take
– Summarize each exercise with a paragraph about the
most important things that you learned
• We will examine your notebook at each class
