This course will provide instruction and hands-on training in protein structures using several public databases and bioinformatics tools freely available on the internet.

Topics include: searching structures in the PDB and their schematic display in PDBSum; exploring the structural classification of proteins in the CATH and SCOP databases; examining the 3-D orientation of catalytic residues using Catalytic Site Atlas; linking functional annotation to structures using ProFunc and InterPro; and investigating domain-domain interactions using iPFAM.

The Workshop on “ Modern computer tools for the biosciences ” is a
one-day event focussing on topics including the added-value of the Grid
for Bioinformaticians, Biologists and Medical scientists, and the
readiness of the Grid for these end-users The grid concept has already
produced a variety of middlewares, components and platforms that are
available around the World. But are facilites ready to be exploited by
the true end-user? There are several challenging points that are still

DNA microarrays constitute, no doubt, a paradigm among post-genomic technologies, which are characterised for producing large amounts of data, whose analysis and interpretation is not trivial. Microarray technologies allows querying living systems in a completely new way, but at the same time present new challenges in the way hypotheses must be tested and results have to be analysed.
