Bioinformatics Tools in Genomic and Proteomic Research (Review)

摘要

Bioinformatics is the rapidly growing and developing field in computationalscience era. The major databases which are useful for life science research areNCBI, DDBJ, EMBL, TIGR, PDB, SWIEE-PROT and TrEMBL. Thesedatabases are public databases, conduct research in computational biology,and develop software tools for analyzing genome data.The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) and (FASTA) FastApproximation of Smith and Waterman Algorithm for comparing gene andprotein sequences against others in public databases.
