The charts below lists a portion of the amino acids found in the Cytochrome C protein of several different organisms. Use the chart to compare the amino acid sequence in humans to the sequences of the other organisms listed. For each organism, identify any amino acid that is different or missing when compared to the amino acids in the human sequence.

Ok! I will take a snapshot
this isn't the whole thing, but I really just need to know how to do it!
Flvs right?
yes!
Say, for example, that you take amino acid in position # 19. You look at the table. You see that in humans and the other animals it is I, but in Tuna it is T. You know this is a variant. You do this for all the other animals in the table. I reccomend you print out the table and highlight the different ones. Once you are done with that, look up each amino acid in this table: http://www.carolguze.com/images/biomolecules/AminoAcidJargonStryerBio3.gif
ok, so the, for example, the Rhesus monkey would have 0 differences?
Yup, that's correct @sunshinesoph
Thanks so much! :)
Well, that was interesting.
No problem! Sorry for the delay, I had to go somewhere :P
