Hi!
I am trying to find out the complete genetic sequences of Odorant Binding Protein and Heat Shock Protein for an insect on NCBI nucleotide database, but I always end up with their partial mRNA complete codon sequences which contain Thymine in place of Uracil. I also tried searching for these genes in Gene database of NCBI but couldn't succeed. Can anyone please explain the reason behind the presence of T instead of U in mRNA? Also, can anyone provide an alternate way through which I can find the complete genetic sequences of these genes?
Thanking in anticipation.
