Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga, which has been used as a reference organism for identifying proteins. Five hundred hypothetical proteins in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been sequenced for knowing functions of the proteins in their families. Functions of Five hundred hypothetical proteins in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were predicted using bioinformatics web tools. The web...

Motivation As the quantity of data being depositing into biological databases continues to increase, it becomes ever more vital to develop methods that enable us to understand this data and ensure that the knowledge is correct. It is widely-held that data percolates between different databases, which causes particular concerns for data correctness; if this percolation occurs, incorrect data in ...

Biological researchh has become a data drivenn discipline due too high-throughput research,, the biomolecular databases are expanding at ann enormous rate.. As a result, bioinformatics has emergedd as ann important discipline inn the post ge nome era,, and exploring andd explaining the knowledge hiddenn inn the biomolecular database has become the grandd challenge for bioinformatics.. Ann effic...

Biology databases (bioDBs) play an ever-increasing role in the post-genome era for bioinformatics education. In order to handle the increasing demand for bioDBs in bioinformatics education, since Spring 2005, the College of Information Science and Technology (IST) at University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) has offered a course entitled “Database Search and Pattern Discovery” for seniors of our un...

This research initially focused on construction of a graph database for bioinformatics — a database system allowing storage and retrieval of labeled, directed graphs. Intuitively, graph databases seem well-suited for applications like bioinformatics that involve complex, unstructured information in a fundamental way. However, it is difficult to translate graph data management research into bioi...

All of the life science research web servers published in this and previous issues of Nucleic Acids Research, together with other useful tools, databases and resources for bioinformatics and molecular biology research are freely accessible online through the Bioinformatics Links Directory, http://bioinformatics.ca/links_directory/. Entirely dependent on user feedback and community input, the Bi...

Since 2010, the European Molecular Biology Laboratory's (EMBL) Heidelberg laboratory and the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) have jointly run bioinformatics training courses developed specifically for secondary school science teachers within Europe and EMBL member states. These courses focus on introducing bioinformatics, databases, and data-intensive biology, allowing participants...

The prediction for the unknown proteins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis KZN 1435 were carried out for characterization of the proteins in their respective families. In Mycobacterium tuberculosis KZN 1435 out of 1560 genes for hypothetical proteins, functions were predicted for 1221 hypothetical protein whereas, structures for 803 unknown proteins were revealed. The Bioinformatics web tools like...

Bioinformatics can be defined as the application of computational tools to manage and analyze biological data, typically at the molecular level. The field of Computational Biology aims at the mathematical or computational modeling of biological processes, such as protein folding or protein-protein interaction. Many books that include the title bioinformatics or computational biology (BCB) actua...

Genomics is playing an increasing role in plant breeding and this is accelerating with the rapid advances in genome technology. Translating the vast abundance of data being produced by genome technologies requires the development of custom bioinformatics tools and advanced databases. These range from large generic databases which hold specific data types for a broad range of species, to careful...
