Lesson 1- Introduction

What fields/disciplines are under bioinformatics

What are the goals of Bioinformatics

what goal of bioinformatics which aims to develop efficient ways to store, organize, and manage these large datasets

what goal of bioinformatics is analyzing biological sequences, such as DNA, RNA, and protein sequences

what goal of bioinformatics which predict the three-dimensional structures of proteins and other biomolecules

what goal of bioinformatics which used to annotate genomes, which involves identifying genes, regulatory elements, and functional elements within DNA sequences

what goal of bioinformatics which helps in reconstructing the evolutionary relationships among species based on genetic data

what goal of bioinformatics which used to study the functions of genes and proteins on a large scale (identifying gene functions, pathways, and interactions)

what goal of bioinformatics that analyzes biological data to identify potential drug targets, predict the effects of candidate drugs, and optimize their properties for therapeutic purposes

what goal of bioinformatics is analyzing individual patients’ genetic information to predict disease susceptibility, drug responses, and potential treatment strategies

What field of bioinformatics involves studying genetic material directly obtained from environmental samples.

What goal of bioinformatics aids in the integration of biological data from various sources to create comprehensive models of biological systems.

Scope of application in Bioinformatics

information molecules of all living organisms

The repeating subunits that creates the nucleic acids

2 types of Nucleic acids

a unit of only the base and sugar without phosphates

3 components of Nucleotides

types of nitrogenous bases

6-membere ring made up of carbon and nitrogen atoms

Types of pyramidines

a 6-membered ring fused to a 5-membered ring

types of purines

Link covalently to nitrogenous bases
