Thoroughly Describes Biological Applications, Computational
Problems, and Various Algorithmic Solutions Developed from the
author's own teaching material, Algorithms in Bioinformatics: A
Practical Introduction provides an in-depth introduction to the
algorithmic techniques applied in bioinformatics. For each topic,
the author clearly details the biological motivation and precisely
defines the corresponding computational problems. He also includes
detailed examples to illustrate each algorithm and end-of-chapter
exercises for students to familiarize themselves with the topics.
Supplementary material is available at
http://www.comp.nus.edu.sg/~ksung/algo_in_bioinfo/ This
classroom-tested textbook begins with basic molecular biology
concepts. It then describes ways to measure sequence similarity,
presents simple applications of the suffix tree, and discusses the
problem of searching sequence databases. After introducing methods
for aligning multiple biological sequences and genomes, the text
explores applications of the phylogenetic tree, methods for
comparing phylogenetic trees, the problem of genome rearrangement,
and the problem of motif finding. It also covers methods for
predicting the secondary structure of RNA and for reconstructing
the peptide sequence using mass spectrometry. The final chapter
examines the computational problem related to population genetics.
