Description: This edition provides tools and databases used in bioinformatics, loosely defined as the intersection of molecular and computational biology. With the goal of helping the reader design and implement a successful sequence analysis strategy, topics covered include: using software and Internet resources, submitting DNA sequences to databases, information retrieval from databases, phylogenetic analysis, a database for genome information called ACeDB, and practical aspects of multiple sequence alignment.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
