phosphoribosyl transferase (HPRT) (NP_038584) and the same enzyme from E. coli (WP_103280448) in
FASTA format.
a. Perform a local alignment of the two sequences using Water in EMBL-EBI EMBOSS
(https://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/psa/). Report identity, similarity & gaps
-Identity: identity: 63/175 (36.0%)
-Similarity: 97/175 (55.4%)
-Gaps: 13/175 ( 7.4%)
b. Perform a global alignment of the two sequences using Needle in EMBL-EBI EMBOSS
(https://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/psa/). Compare the results with those from the local alignment.
- Global alignment:

Local aligniment Global alignment
Identity 63/175 (36.0%) 64/224 (28.6%)
Similarity 97/175 (55.4%) 102/224 (45.5%)
Gaps 13/175 ( 7.4%) 52/224 (23.2%)
c. Change the default gap penalty from“10/0.5” to “5/0.1”. Run the local alignment and compare the
results with previous local alignment.
