Biology Workbench Introduction
What is it used for? • It is a web-browser to use bioinformatics tools to analyze and visualize nucleotide and protein sequences comparatively between different species
Account set-up • Go to the following website to get a login name and password: • http://workbench.sdsc.edu
Tools • Session tools • Protein tools • Nucleic acid tools • Alignment tools • Structure tools
Session tools • When you a start a new project, start a new session.
Protein and Nucleic acid tools • Allows you to select and download nucleic acid or protein sequences into the workbench for comparative analysis, such as alignment of sequences among different species.
Alignment tools • Ndjinn-Multiple database search is used for searching as many databases as you wish (databases: http://bioquest.org/bioinformatics/module/tutorials/How3.2/databases.html)
