Abstract:
A better description of the immune system can be afforded if the latest developments in bioinformatics are applied to integrate sequence with structure and function. Clear guidelines for the upgrade of the bioinformatic capability of the immunogenetics laboratory are discussed in the light of more powerful methods to detect homology, combined approaches to predict the three dimensional properties of a protein and a robust strategy to represent the biological role of a gene.

02:02Genomics
Genomics is the science of genomes: it is the study of all the genetic material of an organism. In humans, the genome consists of information carried in 23 pairs of chromosomes in the nucleus, as well as mitochondrial DNA. In genomics, both coding and non-coding DNA is sequenced and analyzed. Genomics allows a better understanding of all living things, their evolution, and their diversity. It has a myriad of uses: for example, to build phylogenetic trees, to improve productivity and...
01:20Immunoprecipitation
Immunoprecipitation, or IP, is a widely used technique that employs protein-antibody interactions to isolate proteins or protein complexes in their native state for studying protein-protein interactions, quaternary structures, or supramolecular complexes. Various modifications of the technique, including chromatin IP, cross-linking IP, and fluorescence IP, are commonly used.
