finding bacterial genes in dataset

bionewbie · 02-24-2021, 04:22 PM

Hi,

I am new to biology and genome sequencing. I am trying to figure out how I can utilize the knowledge that exists in the genome datasets. I get stuck at simple questions. Like the one I have right now is that if I have the genomics of the bacteria in the microbiome, then how can I figure out what is frequency of occurrence of a particular gene?

For instance, I am looking at this dataset -
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/bioproject/PRJNA482748

How can I look up the presence of a particular gene in this dataset? Can it be done? If yes, then can it be done online or do I have to download the entire dataset (and even then how to do it)?

I will appreciate it if someone could help and/or point me to the resources where I can learn how to do this stuff.

Thank you so much for your help!
