On Jan 10 2020, while news of the first fatality was barely trickling in, the 29,903 letters constituting the viral genome from an affected individual in Wuhan had already been elucidated (even though a few corrections were made subsequently).
Hidden Markov Models, the Viterbi Algorithm, and CpG Islands (in VB6)
Problem :
The CG island is a stretch of DNA (usually longer than 200 bases) in which the frequency of the CG sequence is higher than other regions. It is also called the CpG...
phytozome.jgi.doe.gov - Phytozome, the Plant Comparative Genomics portal of the Department of Energy's Joint Genome Institute, provides JGI users and the broader plant science community a hub for accessing, visualizing and analyzing JGI-sequenced plant genomes, as well as...
The main subject of interest in our laboratory is the study of the relationship among sequence, structure, and function in proteins and nucleic acids. Our research can be divided in two major topics:
the study of the sequence-structure...
github.com - Flanker, a Python package which performs alignment-free clustering of gene flanking sequences in a consistent format, allowing investigation of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) without prior knowledge of their structure. Flanker can be...
Gujarat State Biotechnology Mission invite applications [Online Only] under various projects* namely Gujarat Biodiversity Gene Bank (BioGene), Gujarat Institute of Genomics (GIG), Gujarat Institute of Bioinformatics [GIBS] and Gujarat Institute of...
bioinfologics.github.io - What is a k-mer anyway? A k-mer is just a sequence of k characters in a string (or nucleotides in a DNA sequence). Now, it is important to remember that to get all k-mers from a sequence you need to get...
GABi Research
The major researching fields defined as the GABi scope are described next:
Sequence Analysis
Protein Structure Prediction
Comparative Genomics
Functional Analysis of Residues on Protein Families
Gene/Protein...
The main theme of our research is the understanding of how genetic information is decoded from DNA into RNA and proteins. Someone may find this topic a little strange and argue that we already know how this is happening.
Translational recoding....
