2. Brief History
3. Present and Future Scopes
1. Begin With Basics
Let’s start with the very basics and learn step by step, TOGETHER!
CELL
▹Cell Types –
• Prokaryote – no nucleus or membrane-bounded
organelles. Ex- Bacteria
• Eukaryote – have nucleus and other membrane-
bounded organelles. Ex- Human
▹Cell Contents -
• Mitochondria – Power House of Cell
• Lysosomes – Holds enzymes created by a cell
• Golgi Apparatus (body) – Processes protein and
lipids
• Endoplasmic Reticulum – Involved in protein and
lipid synthesis
• Nucleus – Brain of the cell
• Cytoplasm – liquid inside cell where organelles float
NUCLEUS
• Nuclear membrane – 2 layered membrane
• Nucleolus – dense object inside nucleus
• Chromatin – Packed inside the nucleus of every
human cell is nearly 6 feet of DNA, which is divided
into 46 individual molecules, one for each
chromosome and each about 1.5 inches long. 23
pairs of chromosome, 22 pairs of common
autosome, 1 pair sex chromosome
• Nucleoplasm – dense liquid inside nucleus
Chromosome
NUCLEIC ACID (DNA & RNA)
GENE
• A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of
heredity.
• Portion of DNA which acts as instruction to make
proteins.
• Human gene can have few hundred to 2 million base
pairs.
• The Human Genome Project has estimated that
humans have between 20,000 and 25,000 genes.
• Every person has two copies of each gene, one
inherited from each parent.
• Most genes are the same in all people, but a small
number of genes (less than 1 percent of the total)
are slightly different between people (called allele).
• These small differences contribute to each person’s
unique physical features.
GENOME
• A genome is an organism’s complete
set of DNA, including all of its genes.
• Each genome contains all of the
information needed to build and
maintain that organism.
• In humans, a copy of the entire
genome—more than 3 billion DNA
base pairs—is contained in all cells
that have a nucleus.
2. HISTORY
A Journey from Biology to Bioinformatics
WHAT IS
BIOINFORMATICS?
▹The applications of computer sciences to molecular
biology in particular to the study of macromolecules such
as proteins and nucleic acids.
▹Bringing biological themes to computers
”
SYNONYMS
Molecular Bioinformatics, Computational Biology,
Biocomputing
FROM BIOLOGY TO BIOINFORMATICS
▹From Academic Interest to Commercial Interest
▹From Knowledge Discovery to Industrial Development
▹Added Pursuit for Longer Life and Cure for Diseases
▹Tremendous recent progress in Biology and Engineering
▹ Completed between 1986 to April 2003
▹ Identify all genes of Human DNA
▹ Around 3 Billion Nucleutide Bases (A, T, G, C) in a human
body
▹ Average gene consists 3000 bases, varies in size (Largest
Gene – 2.4 Million Bases)
▹ Total Number of Genes around 30,000
▹ Functions are unknown of almost 50% discovered genes
HUMAN GENOME PROJECT
3. BIOINFORMATICS – PRESENT & FUTURE SCOPES
What’s happening now and what might happen in the upcoming years?
SCOPE OF RESEARCH
Sequence Alignment
Arranging DNA/RNA/Protein
Sequences to identify regions of
similarity.
Genome Assembly
Merging long/short reads by aligning
and produce original ancestral gene.
Read Mapping
Mapping generated long/short reads
to a reference sequence.
Evolution
Phylogenetics
Studying evolutionary relationships
among bilogical entities.
Statistical
Phylogenetics
Performing statistical analysis for
finding evolutionary relationships
between biological entities.
Population Genetics
Study of genetic variation within
populations.
SCOPE OF RESEARCH (CONT.)
Genome Annotation
Process of identifying location of genes
and all other coding regions in a
genome.
Gene Expression
Analysis
Gene expression analysis is the process
by which information from a gene is
used in the synthesis of a
functional gene product.
Computer Aided Drug
(CAD) Design
Designing new medications with
knowledge of a biological target and
with help of computer tools.
Structure Prediction
(RNA, Protein)
Predicting 3D structures of RNA and
Protein.
Association Mapping
Linkage Analysis and disequilibrium
mapping. Basically links phenotypes
with genotypes.
Systems Biology
Study of systems of biological
components.
