In the postgenomic era, the large-scale data, such as genome sequences, mRNA sequences, and protein sequences, increase rapidly. It is desired to develop the computational approaches that can derive and analyze useful information from them to promote the development of biomedicine and drug design. Meanwhile, in order to understand how protein-protein interactions and other complex interactions ...

Optimization in Computational Chemistry and Molecular Biology

The past decade has brought major advances in the quality and variety of methods for computerized drug design and molecular docking, making the area ripe for the implementation of hybrid algorithms. Hybrid methods create improved algorithms from existing ones by mixing techniques in a way that maximizes advantages and minimizes disadvantages. Here, we outline a hybrid method for molecular docki...

Systems biology versus molecular biology

Systems biology and molecular biology can answer the same question in quite different ways, and frequently the answers given by one sub-discipline seem no answer at all to the other. For many molecular biologists, a systemslevel explanation leaves them feeling that, until the underlying molecular mechanisms are known, the approach is hopelessly superficial. For systems biologists, on the other ...

Methods in Molecular Biology

For almost 30 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readilyreproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with a...
