چکیده

This background lecture will begin by addressing elementary biological background. Topics include the DNA, genes, chromosomes, and the transfer of genetic information from the DNA to proteins. We shall also review several biotechnological techniques in . A discussion of the type of questions addressed in the field of Bioinformatics will be presented with a description of some of the techniques used in solving them. This is supposed to mainly give a flavor of questions asked, and the chioce of problems is rather arbitrary.

Algorithms for Molecular Biology Fall Semester , 1998 Lecture 11 : February 14 , 1999

It has been a well known fact for over 60 years that the genome undergoes rearrangements, or what seem to be a general scrambling of the order of the genome. In the salivary glands of Drosophila, a phenomenon of chromosomes doubling in thickness during mitosis has been noticed. This appears to be two homologs (identical copies of a chromosome segment created during cell division) that have glue...

The size of GenBank is growing rapidly. Currently there are approximately 200 millions bases of human DNA sequences available in it, and it’s size is expected to triple over the next year. When the human genome project will be completed, it’s size will exceed 3 billion base pairs. Roughly 90% of the human genome is non-coding, namely is not a template for a protein. Due to the size of the datab...

Our goal is to model biological processes given biological data. It is essential for such a model to be of probabilistic nature, since measurements are noisy and molecular biology itself has stochastic characteristics. In this lecture Bayesian networks [4, 8] will be introduced , these provide graphical representation of joint probability distributions in a compact way. These networks are usefu...
