Discover modern, next-generation sequencing libraries from the powerful Python ecosystem to perform cutting-edge research and analyze large amounts of biological data
Key Features
- Perform complex bioinformatics analysis using the most essential Python libraries and applications
- Implement next-generation sequencing, metagenomics, automating analysis, population genetics, and much more
- Explore various statistical and machine learning techniques for bioinformatics data analysis
Book Description
Bioinformatics is an active research field that uses a range of simple-to-advanced computations to extract valuable information from biological data, and this book will show you how to manage these tasks using Python.
This updated edition of the Bioinformatics with Python Cookbook begins with a quick overview of the various tools and libraries in the Python ecosystem that will help you convert, analyze, and visualize biological datasets. As you advance through the chapters, you'll cover key techniques for next-generation sequencing, single-cell analysis, genomics, metagenomics, population genetics, phylogenetics, and proteomics with the help of real-world examples. You'll learn how to work with important pipeline systems, such as Galaxy servers and Snakemake, and understand the various modules in Python for functional and asynchronous programming. This book will also help you explore topics such as SNP discovery using statistical approaches under high-performance computing frameworks, including Dask and Spark, and the application of machine learning algorithms to bioinformatics.
By the end of this bioinformatics Python book, you'll be equipped with the knowledge to implement the latest programming techniques and frameworks, empowering you to deal with bioinformatics data on every kind of scale.
What you will learn
- Become well-versed with data processing libraries such as NumPy, pandas, arrow, and zarr in the context of bioinformatic analysis
- Interact with genomic databases
- Solve real-world problems in the fields of population genetics, phylogenetics, and proteomics
- Connect with the RCSB Protein Data Bank using GraphQL
- Build bioinformatics pipelines using a Galaxy server and Snakemake
- Work with functools and itertools for functional and asynchronous programming
- Perform parallel processing with Dask on biological data
- Explore PCA techniques with scikit-learn
Who This Book Is For
This book is for bioinformatics analysts, data scientists, computational biologists, researchers, and Python developers who want to address intermediate-to-advanced biological and bioinformatics problems. Working knowledge of the Python programming language is expected. Basic knowledge of biology would be helpful.

If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Chiron Media, Wallingford, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
