Bioinformatics: Methods Express is unique. It is a book on bioinformatics that makes sense to non-bioinformaticians. Bioinformatics: Methods Express helps you answer common questions such as: •what else is similar to my gene? •does this protein have any transmembrane regions? •how do I visualize an alignment between these DNAs? •where can I find specific transcription factor sequences? The book provides the clear advice and explicit protocols that non-bioinformaticians need in order to understand what to do - and how to avoid common pitfalls. Each chapter guides you through the major databases and tools with worked examples - all accompanied by sample data files available online. Topics covered include: •data access •sequence searches and alignments •identification and annotation of features •the transcriptome •protein structure and function •comparisons and phylogeny Bioinformatics: Methods Express is a comprehensive manual for all wet-bench scientists who need to use bioinformatics - from postgraduate student to principal investigator. www.scionpublishing.com/bioinformatics contains comprehensive datasets which allow the reader to practise the techniques described in the book.
