Bioinformatics assembly

The above bioinformatic tools provide methods of determining differences or similarities in datasets. The next step is to incorporate metabolomic data with other expression information, including mRNA and proteins, to infer gene function. To accomplish this, metabolomic data sets must be integrated and correlated in a global maimer with genetic and enzymatic data, pathways assembled into systems, and... 

Figure 1.1. Representative organizations of biochemical components. Three component areas of biochemistry—structural, dynamic, and information biochemistry—are represented as organizations in space (dimensions of biomolecules and assemblies), time (rates of typical biochemical processes), and number (number of nucleotides in bioinformatic...

Speakers addressing robust implementation responded to the following questions How can bioinspired design principles be replicated in synthetic and semisynthetic catalysts and catalytic processes Can discovery methods (e.g., bioinformatics) be harnessed to encode designer catalytic sites To what extent can protein scaffolds be replicated with more easily synthesized supports, and can we use these principles to design sequential catalytic assemblies ... 

To gain primary insights about structural features of a metabolic product encoded by a biosynthetic assembly line, bioinformatics analysis can be very helpful 8,24). The procedure can allow the prediction of putative physico-chemical properties of the putative metabolic product encoded, for example, by a cryptic biosynthetic gene cluster 138). The prediction assists in choosing adequate fermentation conditions...
