Bio Informatics

Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding biological data. As an interdisciplinary field of science, bioinformatics combines biology, computer science, information engineering, mathematics and statistics to analyse and interpret biological data. It includes several steps for analysing they are sequence analysis, gene and protein expression, analysis of cellular organization. Protein structure prediction is another important application of bioinformatics. The amino acid sequence of a protein, the so-called primary structure, can be easily determined from the sequence on the gene that codes for it. In the vast majority of cases, this primary structure uniquely determines a structure in its native environment. Other techniques for predicting protein structure include protein threading and physics-based modelling
