Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics applies principles of information
science (derived from applied math, computer
science, and statistics) to make the vast,
diverse, and complex life sciences data more
understandable and useful. It automates simple
but repetitive types of analysis. Computational
biology uses mathematical and computational
approaches to address theoretical and
experimental questions in biology.
3
Molecular information-DNA
  • Raw bacterial DNA sequence
  • Coding or not?
  • Parse into genes?
  • Find regulatory sequences?
  • 4 bases ACGT
  • 1kb for a gene
  • Mb for a genome

Bioinformatics-what is it?
  • Acquisition, curation, and analysis of
  • biological data

DATA
INFORMATION
KNOWLEDGE
15
Bioinformatic Data-1978 to 2007
  • DNA sequence
  • Gene expression
  • Protein expression
  • Protein Structure
  • Genome mapping
  • Metabolic networks
  • Regulatory networks
  • Trait mapping
  • Gene function analysis
  • Scientific literature

16
Goals of the HGP,1998-2003
  • Reference Human Genome Sequence
  • Draft 2001, Finish in 2003
  • Improved Sequence Technology
  • 0.25 per finished base
  • Human Genome Sequence Variation
  • Technology for Functional Genomics
  • Comparative Genomics
  • Finish Mouse by 2005 (well ahead here)
  • ELSI
  • Genome sequences highlight the finiteness of the
    set of sequences!

17
What remains to be done?
  • Comparative Genomics
  • Description of mRNAs, proteins (identity and
    structure)
  • Functional analyses
  • Detailed understanding of development,
    regulation, variation

HOW??
BIO520
22
Life Scientist User Training
  • WWW Watchout
  • eg. Bizarre phylogenies
  • Unread documentation
  • Popular program sites with NO documentation
  • Perhaps one day I will get around to writing some
    documentation-
  • Help from a WWW service, hit several hundred
    times per day!

23
Information ScienceDramatic Changes
  • Information Storage
  • Digital text, numbers, images
  • Computerized Data Analysis
  • Information Distribution
  • WWW, e-mail, etc

Computer Science
  • Operating Systems
  • Programming
  • Algorithms
  • Not all problems solved
  • Data structure/databases
  • Interfaces
  • Search and visualization
