3. WHAT IS BIOINFORMATICS ?
• Biology + Computational Science
• Analyzing biological data using the information technology.
• Components of bioinformatics
• Development of software tools and algorithmsAnalysis and interpretation of biological
data

4. APPLICATION OF BIOINFORMATICS
• Bioinformatics is mainly used to extract knowledge from biological data through
the development of algorithms and software..
• Bioinformatics is used in large number of fields such as microbial genome
applications biotechnology, gene therapy etc.
• Bioinformatics is playing an increasingly important role in almost all aspects of
drug discovery and drug development.

5. NATIONAL CENTER FOR BIOTECHNOLOGY
INFORMATION(NCBI)
• It is part of the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM).
• NCBI is branch of the national institutes of health (NIH).
• It is approved and funded by the government of the United States.
• The main website of NCBI is (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).

7. FILE FORMATS USED IN BIOINFORMATICS
A file format is a standard way that information is encoded for storage in a computer
file.
For example, a Microsoft Word document saved in the DOC file format.
Different file formats in bioinformatics
1. FASTA FORMAT
2. GENBANK FILE FORMAT
3. MULTI- FASTA FORMAT
4. EMBL FORMAT

8. GENBANK FILE FORMAT
FASTA FORMAT

9. BIOLOGICAL SEQUENCE ALIGNMENT:BASIC LOCAL
ALIGNMENT SEARCH TOOL(BLAST)
• BLAST is a computer algorithm that is available for use online at the National
Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website and many other websites.
• BLAST can be used to inter functional and evolutionary relationships between sequences
as well as help identify members of gene families.
• BLAST are available from the National Center for Biotechnology Information.

11. WHAT IS PYTHON?
• Python is simple, easy to learn, high level and object oriented programming
language.
• Python was developed by Guido Van Rossum in the early 1990s.
• Python is one of the most widely used programming languages.
• It can be used for variety of purposes, such as data science, software
development, automation etc.

12. APPLICATION OF PYTHON?
• Web Development
• Game Development
• Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
• Data Science and Data Visualization
• Desktop GUI
• Web Scraping Applications
• Business Applications
• Audio and Video Applications
• CAD Applications
