BIOINFORMATICS COURSE OBJECTIVES To equip the students with the requisite background in areas of modern biology (biochemistry, cell biology, genetics and molecular biology) and computer science (programming languages, databases, algorithms, graphics, data mining, data security etc.). To expose the students into core areas of Bioinformatics like multiple sequence alignment, phylogenetic trees. Enabling the students to apply the knowledge of computational analysis for biological data analysis UNIT 1 INTRODUCTION 9 Hrs. Overview and Definition, Scope and applications of Bioinformatics. Different fields in Bioinformatics. Sequence file formats used in Bioinformatics databases and tools. UNIT 2 DATABASES 9 Hrs Introduction and classification of biological databases. Nucleic acid Sequence databases: NCBI, DDBJ, EMBL. Protein sequence databases - PIR, Swissprot. Structure databases - PDB, PUBCHEM. Secondary databases - PROSITE and PFAM.
