You are studying a novel protein. To learn more about it, you performed a screen in yeast to identify proteins that could interact with it. From the screen you got a clone for a second gene. You had the clone sequenced, and you translated the gene sequence on your computer. What is the next logical step to learn more about the function of these two proteins?

A. Localize the gene to a specific chromosomal region. B. Run a BLAST search. C. Search the human genome sequence for your clone. D. Identify the intron/exon organization.
