background : cockroaches have been recognized as a powerful indoor allergen. cockroach allergy can be a major factor in seri­ous asthma and nasal allergy. bioinformatics tools have been developed to identify potential allergens. the present study was conducted to identify potential allergens in  periplaneta americana (linnaeus). methods : the study focused on the identification of potential all...

Brucellosis, produced by Brucella species, is a disease that causes severe economic losses for livestock farms worldwide Due to serious economic and medical consequences of this disease, many efforts have been made to prevent the infection through the use of recombinant vaccines based on Brucella outer membrane protein (OMP) antigens. In the present study, a wide range of on-line prediction sof...

background and objectives: phospholipases are a group of enzymes that breakdown phospholipid molecules producing second products. these second products play a diverse role in the cell such as signal transduction and digestion in humans. in this study, the effect of phospholipids on the expression of pld genes of a. fumigatus was investigated. the pld genes of this fungus were also investigated ...

background and objectives: phosphlipases are a group of enzymes that breakdown phosphatidylcholine (phospholipids) molecules producing second products. these produced products have a divers role in the cell like signal transduction and digestion in humans. in this research the effect of phosphatidylcholine on the expression of plc genes of a. fumigatus was studied. the plc genes of this fungus ...

The storage and analysis of biological data using certain algorithms and computer softwares is called bioinformatics. The applications that bioinformatics offer to the civilized world are more than just being a researcher's tool for structural and functional analysis. Development and implementation of computational algorithms and software tools facilitate an understanding of the biological proc...

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary research field that applies advanced computational techniques to biological data. Bibliometrics analysis has recently been adopted to understand the knowledge structure of a research field by citation pattern. In this paper, we explore the knowledge structure of Bioinformatics from the perspective of a core open access Bioinformatics journal, BMC Bioinform...

Single cell genomics is a rapidly growing field with many new techniques emerging in the past few years. However, few bioinformatics tools specific for single cell genomics analysis are available. Single cell DNA/RNA sequencing data usually have low genome coverage and high amplification bias, which makes bioinformatics analysis challenging. Many current bioinformatics tools developed for bulk ...

Post 'omic' era has resulted in the development of many primary, secondary and derived databases. Many analytical and visualization bioinformatics tools have been developed to manage and analyze the data available through large sequencing projects. Availability of heterogeneous databases and tools make it difficult for researchers to access information from varied sources and run different bioi...

κ-casein is a glycosilated protein in mammalian milk that plays an essential role in the milk micelles. Control of κ-casein expression reflects this essential role, although an understanding of the mechanisms involved lags behind that of the other milk protein genes. Transcriptional regulation, a first mechanism for controlling the development of organisms, is carried out by transcription facto...

MOTIVATION To analyze the relative proportion of bioinformatics papers and their non-bioinformatics counterparts in the top 20 most cited papers annually for the past two decades. RESULTS When defining bioinformatics papers as encompassing both those that provide software for data analysis or methods underlying data analysis software, we find that over the past two decades, more than a third ...
