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 -
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!
