The second edition of Instant Notes in Bioinformatics introduced the readers to the themes and terminology of bioinformatics. It is divided into three parts: the first being an introduction to bioinformatics in biology; the second covering the physical, mathematical, statistical and computational basis of bioinformatics, using biological examples wherever possible; the third describing applications, giving specific detail and including data standards. The applications covered are sequence analysis and annotation, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolite study, supramolecular organization, systems biology and the integration of-omic data, physiology, image analysis, and text analysis.

This text provides comprehensive coverage of molecular biology at an undergraduate level, providing access to the core information in the field. It covers all the important areas of molecular biology, useful for learning and rapid revision.

The new edition of Instant Notes in Molecular Biology has been revised and updated to include information on micro RNAs, RNA inhibition, functional genomics, proteomics, imaging, stem cells and bioinformatics. Written in an accessible style, the book will be a highly useful tool for studying molecular biology.

A major update of the highly popular second edition, with changes in the content and organisation that reflect advances in the subject. New and expanded topics include cytoskeleton, molecular motors, bioimaging, biomembranes, cell signalling, protein structure, and enzyme regulation. As with the first two editions, the third edition of Instant Notes in Biochemistry provides the essential facts of biochemistry with detailed explanations and clear illustrations.

BIOS Instant Notes in Biochemistry, Fourth Edition, is the perfect text for undergraduates looking for a concise introduction to the subject, or a study guide to use before examinations. Each topic begins with a summary of essential facts-an ideal revision checklist-followed by a description of the subject that focuses on core information, with cle

Instant Notes in Mathematics and Statistics for Life Scientists is aimed at undergraduate life science students who need to improve or brush-up their mathematical and statistical skills to a level which will make the quantitative components of most undergraduate biological courses accessible.

Comprehensive and concise, this handbook has chapters on computing visualization, large database designs, advanced pattern matching and other key bioinformatics techniques. It is a practical guide to computing in the growing field of Bioinformatics--the study of how information is represented and transmitted in biological systems, starting at the molecular level.

Providing researchers and students with easy access to the key facts in a format specially designed for ease of use and rapid revision, this book in the acclaimed "Instant Notes" series covers studying cells and macromolecules, protein structure, nucleic acids composition properties and structures, and gene manipulation, and bacteriophage and viruses, tumor viruses and oncogenes, and applications. 220 illus.
