Question
Which of the given statements is incorrect about Searching for orthologs to a protein family in an EST database?
Options:
A .  Searches of EST databases for matches to a query sequence routinely produce minimal amounts of output that must be searched manually for significant hits
B .  ESTs with a high percent identity with the query sequence, a long alignment with the query sequence, and a very low E value of the alignment score represent groups of paralogous and orthologous genes
C .  To identify orthologs as the most closely related sequence, ESTs were aligned using the amino acid alignment as a guide
D .  To identify orthologs as the most closely related sequence, a phylogenetic tree was produced by the maximum likelihood method
Answer: Option A
Answer: (a).Searches of EST databases for matches to a query sequence routinely produce minimal amounts of output that must be searched manually for significant hits
