This book is a practical introduction to bioinformatics for these computer scientists. The chapters are in-depth discussions by expert bioinformaticians on both general techniques and specific approaches to a range of selected bioinformatics problems. The book is organized into clusters of chapters on the following topics: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Overview of modern molecular biology and a broad spectrum of techniques from computer science -- data mining, machine learning, mathematical modeling, sequence alignment, data integration, workflow development, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- In-depth discussion of computational recognition of functional and regulatory sites in DNA sequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Incisive discussion of computational prediction of secondary structure of RNA sequences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Overview of computational prediction of protein cellular localization, and selected discussions of inference of protein function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Overview of methods for discovering protein-protein interactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Detailed discussion of approaches to gene expression analysis for the diagnosis of diseases, the treatment of diseases, and the understanding of gene functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Case studies on analysis of phylogenies, functional annotation of proteins, construction of purpose-built integrated biological databases, and development of workflows underlying the large-scale-effort gene discovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wong Limsoon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9812566651\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789812566652\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/04\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 540\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.09d","brand":"Wong Limsoon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446706811135,"sku":"9789812566652","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c9f7874e-0ce1-4b2a-9954-daebb0087670.jpg?v=1777226419","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-practical-bioinformatician-wong-limsoon-9789812566652","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
