This might be a basic question but I am wondering how does one approach this task? My aim is to compare specific genes from the published genomes of the closest sequenced species/genera to my organism.

I was surprised at first and asked if I will make a similar database as BLAST but I was told that by "database" they expect me to just download FASTA files from Genbank. Is that simply it?

Thanks!
