Computation Resources for Molecular Biology: A Special Issue.

Increasingly, computational approaches are having a central role across many areas of research tackling the challenges of understanding the complexity of biological systems. A resource such as BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool) (1), which was published in this journal in 1990, has transformed sequence searching because of its speed and power in detect distant but biologically significant...
