I. Basic Information

A. Your name 
II. Protein structure and function (old business)
We need to move on, but anything regarding the notes on protein structure and function posted Sep 4 and 6 that remains a problem for you?
III. Annotation of a Gene (more old business)
(No need to respond to this section if you've done so in an earlier questionnaire and nothing's changed)

A. How far have you gotten in annotating a gene?

Consider how comfortable you are with the following topics (in the notes Annotation of a Gene):

B. If you have completed the annotation, how do you feel about it? Are you confident that your article and summary of an experiment adequately justifies the main annotation of the gene?

C. If you have not completed the annotation, what stands in your way?

D. In either case, how comfortable do you feel regarding the notion of what constitutes justification as opposed to a mere claim?
     

IV. Sanger and Tuppy (1951)
Consider how comfortable you are with the following topics (as defined by the companion to Sanger and Tuppy):

A. The distinction between a research article and a review article? Between a research article and a science news article?

B. The overall strategy Sanger & Tuppy used to determine the sequence of insulin

C. What paper chromatography is and how it works

D. The nature of the figures and tables in the article

E. The differences amongst the various fractions used by Sanger & Tuppy

F. How to interpret Table 3

With this in mind, how could class time best be spent to meet your needs?

Choose up to four study questions that you would most like discussed in class:

SQ1  SQ2 SQ3 SQ4 SQ5 SQ6 SQ7  SQ8  SQ9 
SQ10 SQ11 SQ12 SQ13 SQ14 SQ15 SQ16 SQ17 SQ18
V. Miscellaneous

A. As you've probably figured out, you're going to be meeting in groups routinely during class time.
    So far group composition has changed each day. Do you prefer this arrangement or would you prefer a stable group?

B. Any other comments, questions, suggestions, or concerns you may have?

Thanks!
