Input Data of Biological Problems
I am a newbie in bioinformatics and am coming from computer science angle, where developing models/algorithms/programs to solve biological problem is our focus. I want to ask if there is any data input to programs apart from DNA and Protein sequence, especially in developing Gene Regulatory Network or any Biological Process Network

Have a look at microarray and/or RNAseq datasets (e.g., via GEO). You can then extract expression covariation metrics and construct convenient networks (biological process networks would likely be subnetworks thereof). Those types of datasets would also allow construction of regulatory networks, depending on the dataset. -
Thanks, I will look into it. More Grace.........Comment

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
The systematic characterization of the human proteome has...07-20-2026, 11:48 AM -
Genomics studies in neuroscience face a special challenge due to the brain’s complexity and scarcity of samples. Mapping changes in cell type and state using conventional next-generation sequencing methods remains challenging. Advances in technologies like single-cell sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and long-read sequencing have opened the door to deeper studies of the brain and diseases like Alzheimer’s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and schizophrenia.
