Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding biological data, in particular when the data sets are large and complex.

3. What is Nucleotide?
The Cell is considered to be the building block of life
Eukariyotic cells nucleus have dense amount of cromatin
Most of the chromatin condenses into long, thin strings
called chromosome.
One class of the macromolecules contained in chromatin are
called nucleic acid.
The nucleic acid monomer is called a nucleotide.
4. List of Nucleotides
There are 5 nucleotides that are commonly used in biochemistry and
genetics. Each nucleotide is a polymer made up of three parts:
A five carbon sugar (2'-deoxyribose in DNA or ribose in RNA)
A phosphate molecule
A nitrogenous (nitrogen-containing) base
The five bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine, and uracil,
which have the symbols A, G, C, T, and U, respectively.

7. Transcribing DNA into RNA
There are DNA and RNA in cromatin.
DNA has Adenine,Guanine,Cytosine and Thymine Bases
RNA has Adenine,Guanine,Cytosine and Uracil Bases
RNA differs from DNA in that it contains a base called uracil in place
of thymine.

10. Counting Point Mutations
A mutation is simply a mistake that occurs during the creation or
copying of a nucleic acid, in particular DNA.
Because nucleic acids are vital to cellular functions, mutations tend to
cause a ripple effect throughout the cell.
There are many types of mutation.
The simplest and most common type of nucleic acid mutation is
a point mutation, which replaces one base with another at a
single nucleotide.

13. Translating RNA into Protein
proteins are chains of smaller molecules called amino acids. 20 amino acids
commonly appear in every species.
The primary structure of a protein is the order of its amino acids. Some
proteins are composed of several subchains called polypeptides, while others
are formed of a single polypeptide.
