Re: Bioinformatics-Anna University Question Papers

As you are asking about the Question Papers of Bioinformatics of Anna University so here I would like to provide you the same please have a look on that

Answer ALL Questions

PART – A (10 x 2 = 20 marks)

1. Given 2 strings ”SWALN” and “CRWLNA” give an alignment, edit distance and edit transcript for it. If the cost of replacement is – 1 and the cost of an indel is –2 what is the weighted edit distance?
2. 2 alignments have the same edit distance. Will the score of the alignments also be the same?
3. What are sequence motifs? Give an example.
4. Name 2 protein databases. What is cross-referencing in databases.
5. What is basecalling? How do they resolve sequencing errors in genome sequencing projects?
6. What does the number 62 signify in the substitution matrix BLOSUM62?
7. Define raw score, bit score and e-value in BLAST.
8. What are the features of a multiuser operating system?
9. What is annotation?
10. Construct a profile with the following multiple sequence alignment
R G M _ A
R G A G A
R M M G _
M G _ G M
A G A R A

PART – B (5 x 16 = 80 marks)
Question 11 is compulsory

11. Describe an algorithm for global alignment of strings. Align the two strings LLNCDR and LRCDN globally using the Needleman and Wunsch algorithm
