Computational Methods for Understanding Bacterial and Archaeal Genomes (Advances in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology)
By Ying Xu, J. Peter Gogarten
Publisher: Imperial College Press
Number Of Pages: 496
Publication Date: 2008-08-06
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1860949827
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781860949821
Product Description:
Over 500 prokaryotic genomes have been sequenced to date, and
thousands more have been planned for the next few years. While these
genomic sequence data provide unprecedented opportunities for
biologists to study the world of prokaryotes, they also raise extremely
challenging issues such as how to decode the rich information encoded
in these genomes. from duansci.com This comprehensive volume includes a
collection of cohesively written chapters on prokaryotic genomes, their
organization and evolution, the information they encode, and the
computational approaches needed to derive such information. A
comparative view of bacterial and archaeal genomes, and how information
is encoded differently in them, is also presented. Combining
theoretical discussions and computational techniques, the book serves
as a valuable introductory textbook for graduate-level microbial
genomics and informatics courses.
Contents: General Characteristics of Prokaryotic Genomes (J Mrázek
& A O Summers); Genes in Prokaryotic Genomes and Their
Computational Prediction (R K Azad); Evolution of the Genetic Code:
Computational Methods and Inferences (G Fournier); Dynamics of
Prokaryotic Genome Evolution (P Lapierre); Mobile Genetic Elements and
Their Prediction (M G I Langille et al.); Horizontal Gene Transfer: Its
Detection and Role in Microbial Evolution (J P Gogarten & O
Zhaxybayeva); Genome Reduction During Prokaryotic Evolution (F J Silva
& A Latorre); Comparative Mechanisms for Transcription and
Regulatory Signals in Archaea and Bacteria (A MartÃnez-Antonio & J
Collado-Vides); Computational Techniques for Orthologous Gene
Prediction in Prokaryotes (M Poptsova); Computational Elucidation of
Operons and Uber-Operons (P Dam et al.); Prediction of Regulons Through
Comparative Genome Analyses (Z-C Su et al.); Prediction of Biological
Pathways Through Data Mining and Information Fusion (F-L Mao et al.);
