Moriyama's Focus on Developing Bioinformatics Tools Earns Stimulus Grant
Scientific advances in areas as diverse as medicine and agriculture often require finding specific snippets of DNA within an organism's vast genetic information -- and University of Nebraska-Lincoln biologist Etsuko Moriyama is working to develop tools to locate them.
Recent sequencing of many organisms' genomes, including humans, offers crucial and nearly unlimited genetic data. Researchers use the information to treat human diseases, improve crop performance and better understand evolution, among many other pursuits. They often start with identifying proteins of interest. From there, researchers must find the fragments of DNA sequences that encode the protein, an often difficult next step in solving biological questions. more...
