Bioinformatics in MicroRNA Research [EPUB ebook] 

This thorough volume provides an in-depth introduction to and discussion of micro RNAs (mi Rs) and their targets, mi R functions, and computational techniques applied in mi R research, thus serving the need for a comprehensive book focusing on mi R target genes, mi R regulation mechanisms, mi R functions performed in various human diseases, and mi R databases/knowledgebases. Without prior knowledge of the area of study, computational biologists, computer scientists, bioinformaticians, bench biologists, as well as clinical investigators will find it easy to follow the techniques in this collection. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include the kind of detailed implementation advice that ensures successful results. Accessible and practical, Bioinformatics in Micro RNA Research functions as an ideal guide for researchers of all backgrounds to explore this vital area of study.
