EB 3430 - Bioinformatics II

2 lecture hours 2 lab hours 3 credits
This course introduces students to the practical application of currently available bioinformatics tools to various real-world problems including comparative analysis of homologous biological sequences to address evolutionary/phylogenetic relationships between a wide variety of different organisms, 3D visualization of large complex biological macromolecules, cross-analysis of biological sequences and their corresponding 3D structures to identify and characterize various redundant sequence and structural motifs essential in defining both the higher-order 3D architecture and the cellular function of many biologically active macromolecules, and molecular modeling to predict the 3D structure of biologically important macromolecules whose higher-order structure is not available yet. (prereq: EB-3420)
