Bioinformatics is the application of information technology to the management and analysis of biological data with the aid of computers. Bioinformatics can be divided into 3 major divisions: 1) DNA/RNA, 2) Protein and 3) Genome below where you can find links relevant to these divisions. In addition, this page contains other relevant links which will aid you as you analyze your biological data.

DNA/RNA Bioinformatics


Protein Bioinformatics Genome Bioinformatics

Database entry portals: SRS SRS DBGET NCBI Cross-Ref DB (one of the most comprehensive cross-reference sites by the US govt to other Data bases) PubMed ExPASy (protein analysis) The RCSB Protein Data Bank (structural data) Enzyme Data Base

Sequence Analysis/manipulation: EMBL NCBI Sequence Manipulation Suite (this site will do a lot of functions all in one with a given sequence)

Search Engines: MIA (Molecular Information Agent will actually take your sequence, etc and search for all information pertaining to that query)

Links to Bioinformatic Sites: Genamics Keuleven Genome Web (very extensive and updated list of genome web sites) Bioreference (very useful too to find highly used links, also provides short description of each link) DBCAT IndianaU EMBL (highly useful site which cross-references you to sites which allow you to do the things you want to do!)

Utility Tools: File conversion Seqtools
