orphan date July 2010 Integrative bioinformatics is a discipline of bioinformatics that focuses on problems of data integration for the life sciences . With the rise of high throughput HTP technologies in the life sciences, particularly in molecular biology , the amount of collected data has grown in an exponential fashion. Furthermore, the data is scattered over a plethora of both public and private Information repository repositories , and is stored using a large number of different file format formats . This situation makes the extraction of new knowledge from the complete set of available data very difficult. Integrative bioinformatics attempts to tackle this problem by providing unified access to life science data. Data that can be integrated include genomes , proteins , protein protein interaction data, annotations , gene expression data, phylogenies , Category Biology journals biological articles , and drug interaction data. Approaches Semantic web approaches Data warehousing approaches In the data warehousing strategy, the data from different sources are extracted and integrated in a single database. For example, various omics datasets may be integrated to provide biological insights into biological systems. Examples include data from genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, interactomics, metabolomics. Ideally, changes in these sources are regularly synchronized to the integrated database. The data is presented to the users in a common format. One advantage of this approach is that data is available for analysis at a single site, using a uniform schema. Some disadvantages are that the datasets are often huge and are difficult to keep up to date. Other approaches See also Biological database Biological data visualization References references External links http journal.imbio.de Journal of Integrative Bioinformatics Category Bioinformaticsbioinformatics stub ... more details

NOTOC Structural bioinformatics is the branch of bioinformatics which is related to the analysis and prediction of the three dimensional structure of biological macromolecules such as proteins , RNA , and DNA . It deals with generalizations about macromolecular 3D structure such as comparisons of overall folds and local motifs, principles of molecular folding, evolution, and binding interactions, and structure function relationships, working both from experimentally solved structures and from computational models. The term structural has the same meaning as in structural biology , and structural bioinformatics can be seen as computational structural biology. genomics footer See also columns list 2 MMDB Protein Data Bank SCOP STING Molecular modelling List of software for molecular mechanics modeling Molecular Conceptor CASP References Books Bourne, P.E., and Gu, J. 2009 Structural Bioinformatics 2nd edition , John Wiley & Sons, New York, ISBN 978 0 470 18105 8 Bourne, P.E., and Weissig, H. 2003 Structural Bioinformatics , Wiley ISBN 0 471 20199 5 Leach, Andrew 2001 Molecular Modelling Principles and Applications 2nd edition , Prentice Hall, ISBN 978 0582382107 Hallmark publications cite journal journal RNA volume 7 pages 499&ndash 512 year 2001 author Leontis NB, Westhof E. title Geometric nomeclature and classification of RNA base pairs doi 10.1017 S1355838201002515 cite journal journal Adv Protein Chem volume 34 pages 167&ndash 339 year 1981 author Jane S.

No footnotes date August 2009 Orphan date February 2009 The International Conference on Bioinformatics InCoB is a scientific conference on bioinformatics aimed at scientists in the Asia Pacific region. It has been held annually since 2002. Originally organised by coordination between the Asia Pacific Bioinformatics Network and the BIOTEC of Thailand in 2002, the meeting has since been the flagship conference of the APBioNet, where APBioNet s Annual General Meeting is held. Scientific publications Since 2006, InCoB has been partnering with BMC Bioinformatics to publish a InCoB Special Conference Issue of top papers presented at the conference. In 2007, an additional tie up with the Bioinformation journal was established in addition to the BMC Bioinformatics issue. Technological placeshifting Since 2007, InCoB held in Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, has been placeshifted in an additional location in a developing country venue, namely the VNU, VietNam through the advanced videoconferencing project of APAN and TEIN2. Satellite training workshops Since 2007, at the VNU site coordinated by the Institute of Biotechnology Hanoi IBT , InCoB coordinated with the International Union for Biochemists and Molecular Biologists IUBMB and the Federation of Asian Oceanian Biochemists and Molecular Biologists FAOBMB and APBioNet to hold a two week bioinformatics training course with course faculty from Karolinska Institutet, NCBI and National University of Singapore, supported by the S Alliance for Bioinformatics Education and BioSlax, a software development project hosted at NUS as part of an ASEAN SubCommittee on Biotechnology SCB project.
