Course Overview

Is it right for me?

• This course is intended for both experimental biologists and computational scientists.
• Participants will be assumed to have a basic understanding of biology but will not need to be computer scientists.
• The prime objective of the course is to convey an appreciation of the range and capabilities of the protein related services made available at the EBI

What will I learn?

• You will be introduced to the different protein sequence databases.
• How to search for your sequence, identify it and perform some functional analysis.
• Introduction to different types of data and information you can extract including protein interactions, ontologies and pathways.

What will it cover?

• UniProt
• IntAct
• InterPro
• Ontologies
• Reactome
