The term structural has the same meaning as in structural biology, and structural bioinformatics can be seen as a part of computational structural biology. The main objective of structural bioinformatics is the creation of new methods of analysing and manipulating biological macromolecular data in order to solve problems in biology and generate ...
In biology, a probe is a single strand of DNA or RNA that is complementary to a nucleotide sequence of interest. RNA probes can be designed for any gene or any sequence within a gene for visualization of mRNA , [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] lncRNA [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] and miRNA in tissues and cells.
The PDB is a key in areas of structural biology, such as structural genomics. Most major scientific journals and some funding agencies now require scientists to submit their structure data to the PDB. Many other databases use protein structures deposited in the PDB.

Bioinformatics tools aid in comparing, analyzing and interpreting genetic and genomic data and more generally in the understanding of evolutionary aspects of molecular biology. At a more integrative level, it helps analyze and catalogue the biological pathways and networks that are an important part of systems biology.
Identifying moths. Identification in biology is the process of assigning a pre-existing taxon name to an individual organism.Identification of organisms to individual scientific names (or codes) may be based on individualistic natural body features, [1] experimentally created individual markers (e.g., color dot patterns), or natural individualistic molecular markers (similar to those used in ...
The automated identification of biological objects such as insects (individuals) and/or groups (e.g., species, guilds, characters) has been a dream among systematists for centuries. The goal of some of the first multivariate biometric methods was to address the perennial problem of group discrimination and inter-group characterization.
For full 3-D threading, the problem of identifying the best alignment is very difficult (it is an NP-hard problem for some models of threading). [ citation needed ] Researchers have made use of many combinatorial optimization methods such as conditional random fields , simulated annealing , branch and bound , and linear programming , searching ...
