Compact Handbook of Computational Biology

Herausgeber: Konopka, A K; Crabbe, M James C

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Written by a dynamic team of highly regarded researchers, many of whom pioneered current methodologies in computer-assisted research in the life sciences, this interdisciplinary handbook covers terminology, software, and applications of computational biology. It provides clearly written yet authoritative descriptions of methods and practical examples of their use supported by 975 cited references. Highlights include methods for pragmatic analysis of nucleic acid and protein sequences and structures, definition and detection of motifs in nucleic acid and protein sequences, protein structure prediction, and discrete modeling of biopolymers.
