Bioinformatics: Volume II: Structure, Function and Applications

Book Overview

In Bioinformatics, leading researchers in the field provide a selection of the most useful and widely applicable methods, able to be applied as is, or with minor variations, to many specific problems. Volume II: Structure, Function and Applications contains methods pertinent to the prediction of protein and RNA structures and the analysis and classification of structures, methods for inferring the function of previously identified genomic elements, chiefly protein-coding genes, medical applications in diagnostics and drug discovery, and "meta-methods" for developers of bioinformatics algorithms. Over 80 authors from around the globe have contributed to the two volumes, including many leading experts, representing an inter-disciplinary collaboration involving biologists, biochemists, physicists, mathematicians, statisticians and computer scientists.
