{"product_id":"9781908818126","title":"Annotating New Genes: From in Silico Screening to Experimental Validation","description":"In recent years, a number of academic and commercial software packages and databases have been developed for the analysis and screening of biological data; however, the usability of these data is compromised by so-called novel genes to which no biological function is assigned. Annotating new genes outlines an approach to the analysis of evolutionary-conserved, heart-enriched genes with unknown functions, offering a step-by-step description of the procedure from screening to validation. The book begins by offering an introduction to the databases and software available, before moving on to cover programming guidelines, including a specific case study on the use of C-It for in silico screening. The second half of the book offers a step-by-step guide to experimental validation concepts and procedures, as well as an overview of additional potential applications of this approach in the field of stem cells and tissue regeneration, before a concluding chapter summarises the concepts and theories presented.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocuses not only on screening but also on biological validations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides details of databases and software (web interface) products for biologists with minimal computation skills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers a step-by-step outline of the procedure involved\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Science","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47151371092208,"sku":"9781908818126","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781908818126_p0.jpg?v=1763622871","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781908818126","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
