Bioinformatics is the application of information technology to the storage, management and analysis of biological information. It involves using computers to analyze biological data, especially DNA and protein sequences. Some key areas of bioinformatics include sequence analysis, molecular modeling, phylogeny/evolution, medical informatics, image analysis, and statistics. Bioinformatics has many applications in medicine like genome analysis for genetic diseases, understanding drug effects, and facilitating drug design. It can also be applied to crop and livestock improvement. Next generation sequencing technologies like Illumina, SOLiD, and 454 have enabled rapid DNA sequencing at a lower cost compared to Sanger sequencing. These new technologies are driving major advances in biological research.

- 4. What is Bioinformatics ? • Application of information technology to the storage, management and analysis of biological information (Facilitated by the use of computers) – Sequence analysis? – Molecular modeling (HTX) ? – Phylogeny/evolution? – Ecology and population studies? – Medical informatics? – Image Analysis ? – Statistics ? AI ? – Sterkstroom of zwakstroom ?
- 5. • Medicine (Pharma) – Genome analysis allows the targeting of genetic diseases – The effect of a disease or of a therapeutic on RNA and protein levels can be elucidated – Knowledge of protein structure facilitates drug design – Understanding of genomic variation allows the tailoring of medical treatment to the individual’s genetic make- up • The same techniques can be applied to crop (Agro) and livestock improvement (Animal Health) Promises of genomics and bioinformatics

He awakened his friend dozing in the passenger seat and excitedly explained to her that he had hit upon a solution - not to his original problem, but to one of even greater significance. Kary Mullis had just conceived of a simple method for producing virtually unlimited copies of a specific DNA sequence in a test tube - the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

- 31. Basics of the “old” technology • Clone the DNA. • Generate a ladder of labeled (colored) molecules that are different by 1 nucleotide. • Separate mixture on some matrix. • Detect fluorochrome by laser. • Interpret peaks as string of DNA. • Strings are 500 to 1,000 letters long • 1 machine generates 57,000 nucleotides/run • Assemble all strings into a genome.
- 32. Basics of the “new” technology • Get DNA. • Attach it to something. • Extend and amplify signal with some color scheme. • Detect fluorochrome by microscopy. • Interpret series of spots as short strings of DNA. • Strings are 30-300 letters long • Multiple images are interpreted as 0.4 to 1.2 GB/run (1,200,000,000 letters/day). • Map or align strings to one or many genome.
