Phytanoyl-CoA intro

Abstract | Introduction | Results | Discussion | Conclusion | Method | References

Biochemistry, genetics and bioinformatics are three of the quickest growing fields in modern research. They have quickly established themselves over the last decade as better computer techniques have been made available. This increase in the quality of instrumentation has lead to an explosion of new genomic data to analyse, the majority of which is available online for public access.

Our aim in this project is simple. We were given a target sequence -
