**__BLAST__**
BLASTn was used to identify similar genes to gene AMELY amelogenin, Y-linked [ Homo sapiens (human) ], NC_000024.9.

BLASTp was used to identify similar proteins to protein Amelogenin, Y-linked [Homo sapiens], EAW59129.1

__**MEGA**__
MEGA was used to align the protein sequences from BLASTp. It was also used to create phylogenetic trees from the alignments. The phylogenetic trees indicate similarities between the protein sequences in the alignment.

**__Gene Ontology__**
Gene Ontology was used to determine the biological process and cellular component of amelogenin, Y-Linked.

__**NCBI Map Viewer**__
NCBI Map Viewer was used to determine the location of amelogenin on chromosome Y in humans. It was also used to compare the locations of amelogenin bewtween humans and primates.
