Computational genomics

We now know how to read the sequences of nucleotide letters that comprise the genome at a rather frightening speed--a several-million-base bacterial genome in several days is not a problem for one of the sequencing centers, and a billion-base eukaryotic genome can be done in less than a year. But reading a text and understanding it are two different things. So how well can we understand the gen...

Computational Proteomics and Genomics

Genomics is the study of the genome, i.e. the whole hereditary information of an organism that is encoded in the DNA (or, for some viruses, RNA). Investigation of single genes, their functions and roles is becoming common practice in today's medical and biological research. Genome-wide sequencing projects have been completed for many organisms, including Homo Sapiens. Currently thousands of gen...
