bioinformatics - How to find a gene sequence?


So I need to learn how to find the sequence of a gene, polyphenoloxidase. Please do not do this for me. Tell me how to approach the problem.


I have found : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene and searched for polyphenoloxidase and get a list of results.


Here is one PPO page: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/107923401 There is a FASTA sequence there under " NC_030099.1 Reference ASM98774v1 Primary Assembly" but I am not sure if PPO gene is there.



Answer




You can find the sequence in the gene database, but it is perhaps easier to search the nucleotide database if you are only looking for the sequence of nucleotides.
