Description
The
Guide to Human Genome Computing is invaluable to scientists who wish to make use of the powerful computing tools
now available to assist them in the field of human genome analysis. This book clearly explains access and use of sequence databases,
and presents the various computer packages used to analyze DNA sequences, measure linkage analysis, compare and align DNA sequences from
different genes or organisms, and infer structural and functional information about proteins from sequence data.
This Second Edition
contains completely updated material. Rather than a revision of the previous volume, the Second Edition is essentially a new book, based
on the subjects which will be of interest over the coming years. This new book is international, both in scope and authorship.
Audience:
Graduate and postgraduate researchers in molecular biology, bioinformatics, genomics and genetics; those involved in the analysis of sequence information, particularly from the Human Genome Project.
