Bioinformatics Biocomputing and Perl: An Introduction to Bioinformatics Computing Skills and Practice

Product Description
Bioinformatics, Biocomputing and Perl presents a modern introduction to bioinformatics computing skills and do. Structuring its presentation nearly four main areas of study, this book covers the skills vital to the day-to-day activities of today’s bioinformatician. Each chapter contains a run of maxims calculated to highlight key points and there are exercises to supplement and cement the introduced material. 

Working with Perl presents an extended tutorial introduction to programming through Perl, the premier programming technology of the bioinformatics community. Even though no previous programming experience is assumed, completing the tutorial equips the reader with the ability to yield powerful custom programs with ease.

Working with Data applies the programming skills bought to processing a variety of bioinformatics data. In addition to advice on working with vital data stores such as the Protein DataBank, SWISS-PROT, EMBL and the GenBank, extensive discussion is devoted to using bioinformatics data to populate relational database systems.  The well loved MySQL database is used in all examples.

Working with the Web presents a discussion of the Web-based technologies that allow the bioinformatics researcher to publish both data and applications on the Internet.

Working with Applications shifts gear from making custom programs to using them. The tools described include Clustal-W, EMBOSS, STRIDE, BLAST and Xmgrace. An introduction to the vital Bioperl Project concludes this chapter and rounds off the book.
