How we did it

To find the sequence of the human FRY gene, follow the steps below:

  1. Go to Ensembl.
  2. Choose ‘Human’ and search for ‘FRY’ in the search box.
  3. Click on ‘FRY (Human Gene)’. You should now be in the gene summary page for FRY (Figure 54). 
Figure 54: The Sequence link at the left of the gene summary page is shown above.
  1. Click on ‘Sequence‘ at the left hand side. You should now see the sequence (Figure 55).
Figure 55 Red lettering shows where the exon is. You can use this information to design the primers.
  There are alternative ways to get the sequence! You could have used the Export data button, or BioMart.

Now let’s find out which genes neighbour FRY.

  1.  Click on the location tab to see FRY and its surrounding region (Figure 56).
Figure 56 The neighbouring genes is LncRNA gene (purple) gene called ENSG00000287904 and a small protein-coding (gold) gene called ZAR1L. If it’s difficult to see which name matches which gene, click on any coloured bar for more information.
