Bioinformatics: Methods Express (Methods Express Series) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Bioinformatics: Methods Express is unique. It is a book on bioinformatics that makes sense to non-bioinformaticians.
Bioinformatics: Methods Express helps you answer common questions such as:

• what else is similar to my gene?
• does this protein have any transmembrane regions?
• how do I visualize an alignment between these DNAs?
• where can I find specific transcription factor sequences?

The book provides the clear advice and explicit protocols that non-bioinformaticians need in order to understand what to do - and how to avoid common pitfalls. Each chapter guides you through the major databases and tools with worked examples - all accompanied by sample data files available online. Topics covered include:

• data access
• sequence searches and alignments
• identification and annotation of features
• the transcriptome
• protein structure and function
• comparisons and phylogeny

Bioinformatics: Methods Express is a comprehensive manual for all wet-bench scientists who need to use bioinformatics - from postgraduate student to principal investigator.
www.scionpublishing.com/bioinformatics contains comprehensive datasets which allow the reader to practise the techniques described in the book.
