متن کاملSequence Alignment in Bioinformatics - A Historical Perspective
Sequence alignment in bioinformatics is a field of research focused on developing tools for comparing and finding similar sequences of amino acids or DNA base pairs with the aid of computers. The sequence similarity is used to assess gene and protein homology, classify genes and proteins, predict biological function, secondary and tertiary protein structure, detect point mutations, construct ev...
متن کاملBioinformatics in China: A Personal Perspective
In this personal perspective, we recall the history of bioinformatics and computational biology in China, review current research and education, and discuss future prospects and challenges. The field of bioinformatics in China has grown significantly in the past decade despite a delayed and patchy start at the end of the 1980s by a few scientists from other disciplines, most noticeably physics ...
متن کاملBioinformatics Meets User-Centred Design: A Perspective
Designers have a saying that "the joy of an early release lasts but a short time. The bitterness of an unusable system lasts for years." It is indeed disappointing to discover that your data resources are not being used to their full potential. Not only have you invested your time, effort, and research grant on the project, but you may face costly redesigns if you want to improve the system lat...
