| By: Stephen Misener, Stephen A. Krawetz ISBN: 0896037320 Publisher: Humana Press Release Date: 15 January, 2000 Bioscience book rank: 702052 | Not a bad book for Bioinformatics users who want to see what is around but this kind of information dates very rapidly.<p>Not a very good book for people interested in developing for bioinformatics (although it may prevent you from reinventing the wheel) This book gives an overview of the powerful suite of software tools available for various computer applications of molecular biology. The initial chapters talk about many programs(comparisons, Database searching, sequence analysis, Gene Finding, pattern recognition, etc.) and web-based interfaces in addition to the utilities for sequences, databases etc., packed in Wisconsin package apart from short briefs of how to use these tools in a desktop environment. Also this book gives the details of sequence analysis tool called Omiga and its diverse functionalities. <p>Biological Sequence analysis software like MacVector and Lasergene gets enough attention in this book. Also sequence type-dependent and platform-independen tools like PepTool and GeneTool are also explained in detail. <p>Two important applications in molecular biology, gene identification and biological pattern detection have received a greater significance here. There is also a chapter about network computing for biologists.<p>This book lists out a set of free molecular biology software available in different web servers. A lot of relevant information about the journals online, research institutions and organisations and biological information repositories with their web site details and references are also accommodated. There are separate chapters for web-based resources for NCBI(National Center for Biotechnology Information)and EBI(European Bioinformatics Institute) besides a number of computing resources for geneticists. <p>In contrast to the notion of using mathematical and computational methods for solving different problems in modern biology, there is a chapter on computing with DNA, which talks about using chemical properties of DNA sequences to design a universally programmable molecular computer.<p>The editors have taken greater efforts in covering almost all vital tools and packages like Staden package, FASTA3 package, CLUSTAL programs, Primer3 on the WWW and Genotator in addition to phylogenetic Analysis using PHYLIP and low cost gel analysis.<p>On the other hand, the editors could have asked for a couple of more chapters on designing CORBA servers towards true interoperability of diverse biological databases, wrapping of legacy applications , integrating various biological software tools and desiging user-friendly graphical user interfaces using the new entrants like Java and CORBA. <p>Still this is a very good book for those with a thought of plunging into this ever-growing field of Bioinformatics. | |
