Task:

• Read the introductory notes on the EBI and UniProt.

Task:

1. In the BIN-Storing_data unit you have found the protein of YFO that is most similar to yeast Mbp1, in YFO.
2. Finally access the UniProt ID mapping service to retrieve the UniProt ID for the protein. Paste the RefSeq ID and choose RefSeq Protein as the From: option and UniProtKB as the To: option.

If the mapping works, the UniProt ID will be in the Entry: column of the table that is being returned. Click the link and have a look at the UniProt entry page while you're there.
