BRIEFINGS IN BIOINFORMATICS

Briefings in Bioinformatics is an international forum for researchers and educators in the life sciences. The journal will also be of interest to mathematicians, statisticians and computer scientists who apply their work to biological problems. The journal publishes reviews for the users of databases and analytical tools of contemporary genetics, molecular and systems biology and is unique in providing practical help and guidance to the non-specialist in computerized methodology. Papers range in scope and depth, from the introductory level to specific details of protocols and analyses encompassing bacterial, plant, fungal, animal and human data. Detailed subject areas covered by the journal include: genetic studies of phenotypes and genotypes, mapping, DNA sequencing, expression profiling, gene expression studies, microarrays, alignment methods, protein profiles and HMMs, lipids, metabolic and signalling pathways, structure determination and function prediction, phylogenetic studies and education and training.

生物信息学简报是生命科学研究人员和教育工作者的国际论坛。数学家、统计学家和将他们的工作应用于生物学问题的计算机科学家也会对该杂志感兴趣。该杂志为当代遗传学、分子生物学和系统生物学数据库和分析工具的用户发表评论，在向非计算机方法学专家提供实际帮助和指导方面具有独特性。论文涉及范围和深度，从入门级到协议的具体细节，并分析了包括细菌、植物、真菌、动物和人类数据的分析。该杂志涵盖的详细学科领域包括:表型和基因型的遗传研究、图谱、DNA测序、表达谱、基因表达研究、微阵列、比对方法、蛋白质谱和HMMs、脂类、代谢和信号通路、结构确定和功能预测、系统发育研究和教育培训。
