Being a multidisciplinary subject, it requires knowledge of several subjects, such as molecular biology, biochemistry, computer science and others. For students from diverse backgrounds, a general understanding of the principles and methods involved is first required, before they pursue a deeper study of the applications. This book attempts to provide a simple and concise explanation of the basic principles, tools and applications of bioinformatics. Algorithms, which are fundamental to solving a problem, have been used throughout the book to illustrate how the tools are applied to obtain meaningful solutions ER -
