Full Description
This text provides insight into all important fields in bioinformatics including sequence analysis; expression analysis; structural biology; proteomics; and network analysis. Many of the leading scientists in the field have contributed chapters to topics ranging from genome sequence determination and its analysis, to the analysis of transcripts and proteins with the final aim of gaining a deeper understanding of the complex networks cells must obey in order to live. The book has been compiled for the increasing number of scientists and researchers working in bioinfomatics and genome analysis worldwide who would like not only to get an overview but who also enjoy reading about the latest results in this field.
