Abstract. Bioinformatics is the use of computational approach to analyze, manage and store biological data. In veterinary research, tools of.
Analysis such as RNASeq data, miRNASeq data, SNP data, gene annotation, transcriptome assembly, alternative splicing detection, gene identification, gene clustering and visualization, genetic variation detection etc are most of the widely used bioinformatics technology in veterinary science.
Bioinformatics also plays an important role in veterinary medicine particularly in vaccine development, since it provides efficient tools for identifying the vaccine targets from the biological data of any organisms (Kehinde and Awosanya, 2015).
Bioinformatics also plays an important role in veterinary medicine particularly in vaccine development, since it provides efficient tools for identifying the vaccine targets from the biological data of any organisms (Kehinde and Awosanya, 2015).
Bioinformatics is the use of computational approach to analyze, manage and store biological data. In veterinary research, tools of bioinformatics are providing useful information about the genes existing in the genome of the species.
Biodiversity Analysis and Parentage Testing
By analyzing the microsatellite, profiles for each individual across different loci inferences can be made about overall magnitude of genetic diversity within breeds.
The priority breeds for conservation should be the ones with the largest within breed diversity.
Microsatellites are most suitable to determine the relationships, expressed as genetic.
Can bioinformatics help animal breeding and genetics?
Therefore we can conclude that the application of bioinformatics will allow the animal breeding and genetics for generating knowledge on the role and sustainable use of genetic variation in animals.
Expression Analysis Methods: Rna-Seq
RNA-Seq is a very influential technology for transcriptomics studies.
It enables us to investigate the gene activities of organisms at different tissues, different stages, and/or under different conditions.
RNA-Seq arrests almost all of the expressed transcripts for a snapshot of cells in theory, while microarrays rely on prior information that can.
Genetic Diversity Analysis
The diverse livestock resources maintain a wealth of unique traits which have not been completely explored.
This genetic diversity is useful for the identification and characterization of livestock breeds not only to prioritize them for conservation but also for their improvement.
Genetic diversity as well as relatedness within and among the popula.
Genome Annotation
Genome annotation is a process to identify gene location in a newly sequenced genome and to assign functions to identify genes and gene products.
It involves two steps, gene prediction and functional assignment, e.g., gene annotation of human genome employs a combination of theoretical prediction and experimental verification.
The predicted genes a.
Genomics
Genomics helps in understanding of genes, noncoding regions, and regulatory regions of DNA sequences.
Study of genomics can be categorized into structural genomics, functional genomics, and comparative genomics.
Functional genomics is the analysis of gene expression and gene functions in the genome of a species or comparative analysis among genomes.
Identification of Genes
When the contigs are obtained from assembly of DNA fragments, the next step is to identify the protein coding regions in them.
This can be done in three ways: (1) using Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based techniques, (2) searching the known database of genes to identify new genes, and (3) using algorithms based on decision trees that identify start and.
Microarray Analysis
Earlier microarray technology revolutionized the study of gene expression and has given rise to an unprecedented increase in the rate of data acquisition in identifying gene transcript regulation in complex eukaryotic genome.
A microarray is a very powerful technology that allows large numbers of genes, up to the order of tens of thousands, to be e.
Proteomics
Proteomics includes separation, identification, and characterization of total proteins from a common source.
The simplest method for identifying this separation is peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) which identifies proteins by matching the masses of digest fragments with known masses from a nonredundant protein database (Table 17.3).
Proteomics hel.
What are the different types of vetinformatics?
Several traditional and advanced subjects are associated with vetinformatics, such as:
veterinary physiology biochemistry anatomy pharmacology and toxicology parasitology microbiology pathology epidemiology genetics and breeding and medicine as well as animal nutrition and poultry science. What is bioinformatics in biology?
It is an interdisciplinary field involving computer science, statistics, mathematics and biology.
Biological fields in which bioinformatics is heavily used include:
structural biology genomics molecular evolution cellular systems biology medicine and pharmacology. What is veterinary bioinformatics?
Vetinformatics is regarded as a new bioinformatics research concept or approach that is revolutionizing the field of veterinary science.
It employs an interdisciplinary approach to understand the complex molecular mechanisms of animal systems in order to expedite veterinary research, ensuring food and nutritional security.
