BIF414 - Genomics and Proteomics

Faculty : Computer Science and Information Technology Programs
School :

Prerequisit Course : BIF321
Credit Hours : 3.00
Offered For : Under Graduate

Course Description :

The course gives an overview of the fundamental concepts of the fields of genomics and proteomics. Genomics is the study of the functions and interactions of the genes in a genome whereas proteomics is defined as the study of all the proteins expressed by the genome. The genome and the proteome are intimately linked between a complex pathway of transcription and translation, which principally involves mRNA processing, protein folding and posttranslational modifications. Both genomics and proteomics incorporate areas of biotechnology, bioinformatics and biology, and utilize a multitude of methods and techniques to study gene and protein expression profiles of cells and whole biological systems
BIF415 - Genomic Bioinformatics

Faculty : Computer Science and Information Technology Programs
School :

Prerequisit Course : BIF321
Credit Hours : 3.00
Offered For : Under Graduate

Course Description :

This course surveys the application and interpretation of high-throughput molecular biology and analytical biochemistry methods used to produce the kinds of high volume biological data most commonly encountered by bioinformaticians. Topics include: using software tools such BLAST and FASTA, Smith- Waterman algorithm for local alignment; multiple sequence alignment, and next generation sequencing data assembly. Using software tools for genome annotation, phylogenomics studies, comparative genomics, genome editing, genome variant analysis, personal and population genomics with emphases on health and medical research, such as personalized medicine and biomarkers discovery for diagnosis of cancer and other diseases
