Lipids are the essential metabolites in human body performing different functions such as energy storage, endocrine actions, cell signaling, morphogenesis, and so on. Using lipidomics approach, it has become easier to study the lipids species in an organism. Continue reading “Lipidomics: An overview” »
A lot of protein structures are determined on a large scale and submitted in Protein Data Bank (PDB) www.rcsb.org [1]. After the experimental determination of these structures, they are used in many scientific studies and experiments are performed upon them such as mutagenesis, docking, and so on. Continue reading “A short introduction to protein structures modification and ModFinder” »
Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) is a fundamental aspect of Bioinformatics in order to identify the species, their functions, phylogeny, study the novel genes/ proteins, and so on. Multiple MSA tools are available with different specifications, which are based on the heuristic algorithm focusing on the speed rather than the accuracy.
