    Study Notes

    Genomics and Bioinformatics

    • The main goal of genomics is to understand the structure, function, and evolution of genomes, and to use this knowledge to improve human health and therapy.

    Bioinformatics

    • Bioinformatics is the field that uses computer hardware, software, and mathematics applications to analyze gene and protein-related data.
    • The purpose of bioinformatics software is to analyze and interpret large amounts of biological data, particularly in the fields of genomics and proteomics.

    Bioinformatics Applications

    • The application of bioinformatics that involves finding gene-regulatory regions is known as genome annotation.
    • Genome annotation is the process of identifying the functional elements of a genome, such as genes, regulatory regions, and structural elements.

    Databases in Bioinformatics

    • The largest publicly available database of DNA sequences is GenBank, which provides access to a vast collection of annotated DNA sequences.
