Exercise : Align large genomic sequences with PipMaker

Objective: compare the human and mouse IL2R-alpha locus to identify conserved regions .
 

Step 1: Identify repeated sequences with RepeatMasker (return format: html) (human repeats)

Step 2: Prepare annotation files  (exons, other features to be colored)

Step 3: Align with PipMaker: use "advanced PipMaker" (***)
