<p>&nbsp;<strong>Bioinformatics</strong>&nbsp;(from the Greek&nbsp;<em>genno</em>&nbsp;<strong>&gamma;&epsilon;&nu;&nu;&Iuml;Ž</strong>&nbsp;= give birth) is the science of genes, heredity, evolution, and the variation of organisms. The phenomenon of inheritance has been implicitly utilized in breeding of organisms and selection for desired traits, and the scientific field of genetics seeks to understand the mechanisms of inheritance.<a rel="dofollow" href="http://www.miere-bucovina.ro" title="miere de albine"><img hspace="2" border="0" vspace="2" src="http://www.all-auto.ro/img/a%20auto" alt="miere de albine" /></a></p>

<p>&nbsp;<strong>Bioinformatics</strong>&nbsp;is addition two word, biology and informatics. Bioinformatics deal with biological information(genomic information etc.). Usually this information is analyzed by computer technology(information technology). However, in traditional biology field also deal with biological data and get the information and work with it, expert JongBhak said &quot;Biology is Bioinformatics and Bioinformatics is Biology&quot;.</p>

<p>The genetic information of organisms is contained within the chemical structure of [[DNA]] (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecules. Individually inherited traits, corresponding to regions in the DNA sequence, are called genes. Genes encode the information necessary for synthesizing RNA and proteins -- complex molecules generally responsible for enzymatic reactions, synthesis, communication and structure within a cell. DNA sequence is transcribed into an intermediate molecule called &quot;messenger RNA&quot;, and ribosomes translate this sequence to form a chain of amino acids to form a protein. This process is known as the central dogma of molecular biology.<a rel="dofollow" href="http://www.auto-my.com/auto-parts" title="auto parts online"><img hspace="2" border="0" vspace="2" src="http://www.all-auto.ro/img/a%20auto" alt="auto parts online" /></a></p>

<p>Although genetics plays a large role in determining the appearance and behavior of organisms, it is the interaction of genetics with the environment that determines the ultimate outcome. Thus, while identical twins have the same DNA and genes, differences in their experiences during development and childhood results in different personalities and fingerprints.</p>

<h3>Programming</h3>
 +
<div>&nbsp;Process of making program. It could be the one format of communication. We translate human's language into computer language. picture in bellow shows translation of High-level Language into Low-level language. We can program with different High-level language (C/C++, Perl, Java etc.). Since now, programming is one-way communication because programmer write the language to make programm and computer do what programmer ask.</div>

<h3>Bioprogramming</h3>
 +
<div>&nbsp;</div>
 +
<div>
 +
<div>Process of creating(Programming) the artificial organism(Program). Bioprogramming is part of programming but handle the biological data and make bio-program(alias artificial organism). Difference between real organism and artificial organism is, organism is made of organic materials and artificial organism is composed of 0 and 1. Biological data can be information of existing organism like &nbsp;genomic data, muscle movement data, connectome etc. By modeling existing organism, we can make it live inside cyberspace and also we can even create entirely new organism (homo sapiens&nbsp;with wings). To bio-program, researchers commonly use Perl, and made a library &quot;BioPerl&quot; to make bio-programming easy.</div>

<h4>Cyber C. elegans</h4>
 +
</div>
 +
<div>&nbsp;There are many researches about Cyber C.elegans. I also called as openworm. Openworm is name of project to make C.elegans in robotic, graphic and may other ways and the name of the cyber C.elegans at the same time. It is 'Open'worm because every structure of C.elegans is open to public and the code to make C.elegans is also accessible to everyone.&nbsp;</div>

<div>Also we can apply neuronal information to robot. Existing artifical intelligence(AI) have a &quot;right answer&quot; to certain stimuli like 'move left when you meet the wall'. Programmer designed the Algorithm to do the task. These days, AI gather the data and learn itself. But It still need some learning algorithm which programmer is made. Contrary to existing Artificial Algrithm, bellow video shows the robot with neuronal information of C.elegans. It THINK to avoid the wall, even though there was no command of programmer.</div>

<h3>What is Reality</h3>
 +
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">&nbsp;I will see what is &lsquo;virtual&rsquo; which is antonym of &lsquo;Real&rsquo;. Virtual is something that made, done, seen etc. on the Internet or a computer. Due to the appearance of computer, people had to make the word to divide cyber space and non-cyber space. So, the word &ldquo;Real&rdquo; is just matter of classification. Before, people could experience the virtual world by using only visual information. That was big difference between real and virtual. However, these days, people can experience the cyber space by using almost every sensory system. Also can communicate using biological information(e.g. EEG). In this reason the barrier between real and non-real is ambiguous and divide to into different word is useless. In conclusion, &ldquo;real&rdquo; world is the world we can experience and perceive in our sensory and neural system and also give a feedback by neural, motor and other biological system.</span></p>

<p>Gregor Johann Mendel, a German-Czech Augustinian monk and scientist, is often called the &quot;father of modern genetics&quot;, a title given to him due to his early work on the heredity of plants. In his paper &quot;Versuche &uuml;ber Pflanzenhybriden&quot; (&quot;Experiments on Plant Hybridization&quot;), presented in 1865 to the Brunn Natural History Society, Gregor Mendel traced the inheritance patterns of certain traits in pea plants and showed that they could be described mathematically.<sup class="reference" id="_ref-mendel_0">[3]</sup>&nbsp;Although not all features show these patterns of Mendelian inheritance, his work suggested the utility of the application of statistics to the study of inheritance.<a rel="dofollow" href="http://www.auto-my.ro/vanzari-auto" title="vanzari auto"><img hspace="2" border="0" vspace="2" src="http://www.all-auto.ro/img/a%20auto" alt="vanzari auto" /></a></p>

<p>The significance of Mendel's observations was not understood until early in the twentieth century, after his death, when his research was re-discovered by other scientists working on similar problems. The word &quot;genetics&quot; itself was coined by William Bateson, a significant proponent of Mendel's work, in a letter to Adam Sedgwick, dated April 18, 1905.<sup class="reference" id="_ref-1">[4]</sup>&nbsp;Bateson promoted the term &quot;genetics&quot; publicly in his inaugural address to the Third International Conference on Plant Hybridization (London, England) in 1906.<sup class="reference" id="_ref-bateson_genetics_0">[5]</sup></p>
 
−
<p>In the decades following rediscovery and popularization of Mendel's work, numerous experiments sought to elucidate the molecular basis of DNA. In 1910 Thomas Hunt Morgan argued that genes reside on chromosomes, based observations of a sex-linked white eye mutation in fruit flies. In 1913 his student Alfred Sturtevant used the phenomenon of genetic linkage and the associated recombination rates to demonstrate and map the linear arrangement of genes upon the chromosome.</p>

<p>Although chromosomes were known to contain genes, chromosomes were composed of both protein and DNA -- it was unknown which was critical for heredity or how the process occurred. In 1928, Frederick Griffith published his discovery of the phenomenon of transformation (see Griffith's experiment); sixteen years later, in 1944, Oswald Theodore Avery, Colin McLeod and Maclyn McCarty used this phenomenon to isolate and identify the molecule responsible for transformation as DNA<sup class="reference" id="_ref-dna_transforming_0">[6]</sup>. The Hershey-Chase experiment in 1952 identified DNA (rather than protein) as the genetic material of viruses, further evidence that DNA was the molecule responsible for inheritance&nbsp;<a rel="dofollow" href="http://www.auto-tip.ro/dezmembrari-auto" title="dezmembrari auto"><img hspace="2" border="0" vspace="2" src="http://www.all-auto.ro/img/a%20auto" alt="dezmembrari auto" /></a>&nbsp;.</p>

<p>James D. Watson and Francis Crick resolved the structure of DNA in 1953, using X-ray crystallography information that indicated the molecule had a helical structure. Their double-helix model paired a sequence of nucleotides with a &quot;complement&quot; on the other strand. This structure not only provided a physical explanation for information, contained within the order of the nucleotides, but also a physical mechanism for duplication through separation of strands and the reconstruction of a partner strand based on the nucleotide pairings. They famously observed this in their paper, stating:&nbsp;<em>&quot;It has not escaped our notice that the specific pairing we have postulated immediately suggests a possible copying mechanism for the genetic material.&quot;</em></p>
 
−
<p>In the following decades, an explosion of research based on this understanding of the molecular nature of DNA became possible. The development of DNA sequencing in 1977 enabled the determination of nucleotide sequences on DNA,<sup class="reference" id="_ref-sanger_sequencing_0">[7]</sup>&nbsp;and the PCR method developed by Kary Banks Mullis in 1983 allowed the isolation and amplification of arbitrary segments of DNA. These and other techniques, through the pooled efforts of the Human Genome Project and parallel private effort by Celera Genomics, culminated in the sequencing of the human genome in 2001.</p>

<p>Classical genetics consists of the techniques and methodologies of genetics that predate the advent of molecular biology. After the discovery of the genetic code and such tools of cloning as restriction enzymes, the avenues of investigation open to geneticists were greatly broadened. Some classical genetic ideas have been supplanted with the mechanistic understanding brought by molecular discoveries, but many remain intact and in use, such as Mendel's laws and Muller's morphs. Patterns of inheritance still remain a useful tool for the study of genetic diseases.</p>

<p>Behavioral genetics studies the influence of varying genetics on animal behavior. Behavioral genetics studies the effects of human disorders as well as its causes. Behavioral genetics has yielded some very interesting questions about the evolution of various behaviors, and even some fundamental principles of evolution in general. For example, guppies and meerkats seem to be genetically driven to post a lookout to watch for predators. This lookout stands a significantly slimmer chance of survival than the others, so because of the mechanism of natural selection, it would seem that this trait would be lost after a few generations. However, the gene has remained, leading evolutionary philosopher/scientists such as Richard Dawkins and W. D. Hamilton to propose explanations, including the theories of kin selection and reciprocal altruism. The interactions and behaviors of gregarious creatures is partially genetic in cause and must therefore be approached by evolutionary theory.</p>

<p>Molecular genetics builds upon the foundation of classical genetics but focuses on the structure and function of genes at a molecular level. Molecular genetics employs the methods of both classical genetics (such as hybridization) and molecular biology. It is so-called to differentiate it from other sub fields of genetics such as ecological genetics and population genetics. An important area within molecular genetics is the use of molecular information to determine the patterns of descent, and therefore the correct scientific classification of organisms: this is called molecular systematics. The study of inherited features not strictly associated with changes in the DNA sequence is called epigenetics.</p>

<p>Some take the view that life can be defined, in molecular terms, as the set of strategies which RNA polynucleotides have used and continue to use to perpetuate themselves. This definition grows out of work on the origin of life, specifically the RNA world hypothesis.</p>

<dl><dd><br type="_moz" />

</dd></dl>
 
−
<p>Population, quantitative and ecological genetics are all very closely related subfields and also build upon classical genetics (supplemented with modern molecular genetics). They are chiefly distinguished by a common theme of studying populations of organisms drawn from nature but differ somewhat in the choice of which aspect of the organism on which they focus. The foundational discipline is population genetics which studies the distribution of and change in allele frequencies of genes under the influence of the four evolutionary forces: natural selection, genetic drift, mutation and migration. It is the theory that attempts to explain such phenomena as adaptation and speciation.</p>
 
−
<p>The related subfield of quantitative genetics, which builds on population genetics, aims to predict the response to selection given data on the phenotype and relationships of individuals. A more recent development of quantitative genetics is the analysis of quantitative trait loci. Traits that are under the influence of a large number of genes are known as quantitative traits, and their mapping to a location on the chromosome requires accurate phenotypic, pedigree and marker data from a large number of related individuals.</p>
 
−
<p>Ecological genetics again builds upon the basic principles of population genetics but is more explicitly focused on ecological issues. While molecular genetics studies the structure and function of genes at a molecular level, ecological genetics focuses on wild populations of organisms, and attempts to collect data on the ecological aspects of individuals as well as molecular markers from those individuals.</p>
 
−
<p>Population genetics is closely linked with the methods of genetic epidemiology. One method to study gene-disease associations is using the principle of Mendelian randomization.</p>

<p>A more recent development is the rise of genomics, which attempts the study of large-scale genetic patterns across the genome for (and in principle, all the DNA in) a given species.

<h3><span class="mw-headline">Closely-related fields</span></h3>
 
−
<p>The science which grew out of the union of biochemistry and genetics is widely known as molecular biology. The term &quot;genetics&quot; is often widely conflated with the notion of genetic engineering, where the DNA of an organism is modified for some kind of practical end, but most research in genetics is aimed at understanding and explaining the effect of genes on phenotypes and in the role of genes in populations (see population genetics and ecological genetics), rather than genetic engineering.</p>

 Bioinformatics is addition two word, biology and informatics. Bioinformatics deal with biological information(genomic information etc.). Usually this information is analyzed by computer technology(information technology). However, in traditional biology field also deal with biological data and get the information and work with it, expert JongBhak said "Biology is Bioinformatics and Bioinformatics is Biology".

 

 

Principles of Bioinformatics

Bioprogramming

Programming

 Process of making program. It could be the one format of communication. We translate human's language into computer language. picture in bellow shows translation of High-level Language into Low-level language. We can program with different High-level language (C/C++, Perl, Java etc.). Since now, programming is one-way communication because programmer write the language to make programm and computer do what programmer ask.
 
.

Bioprogramming

 
Process of creating(Programming) the artificial organism(Program). Bioprogramming is part of programming but handle the biological data and make bio-program(alias artificial organism). Difference between real organism and artificial organism is, organism is made of organic materials and artificial organism is composed of 0 and 1. Biological data can be information of existing organism like  genomic data, muscle movement data, connectome etc. By modeling existing organism, we can make it live inside cyberspace and also we can even create entirely new organism (homo sapiens with wings). To bio-program, researchers commonly use Perl, and made a library "BioPerl" to make bio-programming easy.

Artrificial Organism

Caenorhabditis elegans(C.elegans)

       
▲Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans)                                                 ▲ Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans)  -Anatomical picture
 
Caenorhabditis elegnas has ~1000 cells, 302 neurons, 50k synapses, 95 muscles. All the connectome and anatimic structure is opened, so it became first artificial organism. 
 

Cyber C. elegans

 There are many researches about Cyber C.elegans. I also called as openworm. Openworm is name of project to make C.elegans in robotic, graphic and may other ways and the name of the cyber C.elegans at the same time. It is 'Open'worm because every structure of C.elegans is open to public and the code to make C.elegans is also accessible to everyone. 
 
 
 
▲ Connectome of the C.elegans                                                                                                                           ▲Cell linkage map
 
In cyberspace, C.elegans has exactly same informations with real C.elegans like you can see in above(connectome and cells). It moves, thinks, and reproduction as real one
 
 
 
 
Also we can apply neuronal information to robot. Existing artifical intelligence(AI) have a "right answer" to certain stimuli like 'move left when you meet the wall'. Programmer designed the Algorithm to do the task. These days, AI gather the data and learn itself. But It still need some learning algorithm which programmer is made. Contrary to existing Artificial Algrithm, bellow video shows the robot with neuronal information of C.elegans. It THINK to avoid the wall, even though there was no command of programmer.
 
Also, we can create the new spieces using C.elegans information. Below picture, C.elegans have five artificial arms which is made based on existing muscle information.
▲C.elegans with five arms
 

 

 

 

What is Reality

 I will see what is ‘virtual’ which is antonym of ‘Real’. Virtual is something that made, done, seen etc. on the Internet or a computer. Due to the appearance of computer, people had to make the word to divide cyber space and non-cyber space. So, the word “Real” is just matter of classification. Before, people could experience the virtual world by using only visual information. That was big difference between real and virtual. However, these days, people can experience the cyber space by using almost every sensory system. Also can communicate using biological information(e.g. EEG). In this reason the barrier between real and non-real is ambiguous and divide to into different word is useless. In conclusion, “real” world is the world we can experience and perceive in our sensory and neural system and also give a feedback by neural, motor and other biological system.
