Background: Today, there is a growing need in bioinformatics to combine available software tools into chains, thus building complex applications from existing single-task tools. To create such workflows, the tools involved have to be able to work with each other's data – therefore, a common set of well-defined data formats is needed. Unfortunately, current bioinformatic tools use a great variet...

stem cell factor (scf) is a critical protein with key roles in the cell such as hematopoiesis, gametogenesis and melanogenesis. in the present study a comparative analysis on nucleotide sequences of scf was performed in humanoids using bioinformatics tools including ncbi-blast, mega6, and jbrowse. our analysis of nucleotide sequences to find closely evolved organisms with high similarity by ncb...

Bioinformatics is the use of computers for the storage, recall and analysis of data derived from scientific research aimed at providing answers to biological questions. Increasingly pharmaceutical firms are choosing to incorporate bioinformatics into their drug research and development (R&D) programs. Based on examination of recent literature and case studies of a cross section of the pharmaceu...
