This practical book presents the most state-of-the-art bioinformatics applications. It first focuses on genome analysis, common DNA analysis tools, phylogenetics analysis, and SNP and haplotype analysis. After chapters on microarray, SAGE, regulation of gene expression, miRNA, and siRNA, the book presents widely applied programs and tools in proteome analysis, protein sequences, protein functions, and functional annotation of proteins in murine models. With more than 250 figures to complement the text, the book also introduces the programming languages used in biology, website and database design, and the interchange of data between Microsoft Excel and Access. > \nAn emerging, ever-evolving branch of science, bioinformatics has paved the way for the explosive growth in the distribution of biological information to a variety of biological databases, including the National Center for Biotechnology Information. For growth to continue in this field, biologists must obtain basic comput.
