The number of bioinformatics tools and resources that support molecular and cell biology approaches is continuously expanding. Moreover, systems and network biology analyses are accompanied more and more by integrated bioinformatics methods. Traditional information-centered university teaching methods often fail, as (1) it is impossible to cover all existing approaches in the frame of a single ...

staphylococcus aureus carrying pvl gene remain major health problem associated with highly virulent infections. characterization of such gene is important to know the impact and the functional significance of nucleotide variations. pcr and standard sequencing were performed for twelve sudanese strains from different sources. protein structures prediction, modeling and physiochemical analysis we...

In the past, the huge and profitable interaction between Pattern Recognition and biology/bioinformatics was mainly unidirectional, namely targeted at applying PR tools and ideas to analyse biological data. In this paper we investigate an alternative approach, which exploits bioinformatics solutions to solve PR problems: in particular, we address the 2D shape classification problem using classic...

Bioinformatics refers computational biology that merges with other fields of sciences like applied mathematics, statistics, chemistry for solving biological problems. The research areas in this field include sequence analysis, protein-protein interaction, gene expression analysis which leads it path in drug discovery, disease identification, and evolutionary relationships. At present the bioinf...

The development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) platforms spawned an enormous volume of data. This explosion in data has unearthed new scalability challenges for existing bioinformatics tools. The analysis of metagenomic sequences using bioinformatics pipelines is complicated by the substantial complexity of these data. In this article, we review several commonly-used online tools for metag...
