Acerca de este libro electrónico
• Overview of modern molecular biology and a broad spectrum of techniques from computer science — data mining, machine learning, mathematical modeling, sequence alignment, data integration, workflow development, etc.
• In-depth discussion of computational recognition of functional and regulatory sites in DNA sequences.
• Incisive discussion of computational prediction of secondary structure of RNA sequences.
• Overview of computational prediction of protein cellular localization, and selected discussions of inference of protein function.
• Overview of methods for discovering protein–protein interactions.
• Detailed discussion of approaches to gene expression analysis for the diagnosis of diseases, the treatment of diseases, and the understanding of gene functions.
• Case studies on analysis of phylogenies, functional annotation of proteins, construction of purpose-built integrated biological databases, and development of workflows underlying the large-scale-effort gene discovery.
