Introduction to target structure based drug design. Index. Bioinformatics is an integral part of development and design of new products and processes in biotechnology R&D in pharma sector contract research outsourcing (CRO) drug trials medical informatics etc. However there is a great need of manpower to develop algorithms and software design databases manage gene banks protein banks and banks for biochemical reactions to analyse biochemical and 3D structural databases to create mirror sites and project oriented links to study genomics proteomics protein modelling and drug designing. This needs inputs from various disciplines as mathematics physics chemistry statistics computer science information technology biochemistry biotechnology pharmacology and medical sciences. A new entrant into this subject may get lost at From where to begin. What should be his or her objective. Many words like chemoinformatics drug designing and protein engineering are beyond his or her comprehension. What he or she needs at this juncture is an introduction do different areas in bioinformatics in a way which is easily understandable. The book is written in keeping with the school level knowledge in physics chemistry mathematics and biology. However the student is expected to be a computer literature in order to practice experiments suggested at the end of this book. 312 pp. …
