Description
Summary:"A state-of-the-art textbook on bioinformatics covering the latest 21st-century technology. An essential tool, this book explores the cutting-edge methods of bioinformatics, presenting a wide range of diagrams, mathematical equations, worked examples, and exercises to illustrate the concepts and models. Bioinformatics discusses auto-immune disorders and enumerates the motivation for sequence alignment. The text provides gene-finding algorithms and introduces binomial heap for the maximum increasing subsequence problem. There is also a wealth of information on suffix trees...HMM...HMM applications...protein secondary structure... microarray techniques...drug discovery and development...and advances in biochip and genome completions and sequence alignment. In addition, this valuable resource includes a listing of Internet sites in bioinformatics, which contain constantly updated information on this fast-changing field."
