I am running a BLAST analysis (from the NCBI) as a part of a research paper 
for the International Baccalaureate Diploma. The area I want to research is 
the gene that controls the anti aging process for the turritopsis nutricula. 
It would be helpful if I knew the exact base pair sequence of this gene so I 
could run the analysis to discover its phylogenetic relationships in 
comparison to other organisms to see how this jellyfish evolved to have such a 
unique characteristic.
