Bioinformatics
Open accessAbstract
An unprecedented wealth of biological data has been generated by the human genome project and sequencing projects in other organisms.The huge demand for analysis and interpretation of these data is being managed by the evolving science of bioinformatics.Bioinformatics is defined as the application of tools of computation and analysis to the capture and interpretation of biological data.It is an interdisciplinary field, which harnesses computer science, mathematics, physics, and biology (fig 1).Bioinformatics is essential for management of data in modern biology and medicine.This paper describes the main tools of the bioinformatician and discusses how they are being used to interpret biological data and to further understanding of disease.The potential clinical applications of these data in drug discovery and development are also discussed. MethodsThis article is based on personal experience in bioinformatics and on selected articles in recent issues of Nature Genetics, Nature Genetics Reviews, Nature Medicine, and Science.Key terms including bioinformatics, comparative and functional genomics, proteomics, microarray, disease, and medicine were used to search for relevant articles in the peer reviewed scientific literature.
Overview
CoChat Summary
TL;DR
This narrative review defines bioinformatics as the application of computational and analytical tools to capture and interpret biological data, and describes its role in genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, and clinical medicine. It argues that bioinformatics is essential for managing modern biological data and will increasingly enable drug discovery, targeted therapy, and personalised medicine.
Key findings
- Bioinformatics is defined as “the application of tools of computation and analysis to the capture and interpretation of biological data,” and is described as an interdisciplinary field harnessing computer science, mathematics, physics, and biology.
- The paper highlights core bioinformatic tools and resources, including BLAST for sequence similarity searches, Ensembl for automatic annotation of eukaryotic genomes, and public databases such as Genbank, SWISS-PROT, and NCBI’s Entrez.
- Genome sequencing milestones are cited: the first complete genome of a free-living organism, *Haemophilus influenzae*, was sequenced in 1995 using a “shot gun” technique; the human genome project planned to complete the human sequence by 2003.
- Clinical applications discussed include using PubMed and OMIM for genetic disorder information, the development of imatinib mesylate (Gleevec) for chronic myeloid leukaemia, and longer-term prospects for pharmacogenomics and individualised therapy.
Methods
- Design: narrative review based on “personal experience in bioinformatics and on selected articles in recent issues of Nature Genetics, Nature Genetics Reviews, Nature Medicine, and Science.”
- Search approach: key terms including bioinformatics, comparative and functional genomics, proteomics, microarray, disease, and medicine were used to search peer-reviewed scientific literature.
- Analysis: descriptive synthesis of bioinformatic tools, databases, genomic/proteomic concepts, and potential clinical applications; no primary data collection or quantitative analysis is reported.
Limitations
- The paper does not state explicit limitations.
- Evident from the text: it is a non-systematic narrative review based on personal experience and selected articles, with no described systematic search strategy, inclusion criteria, or critical appraisal.
- Evident from the text: many clinical and future applications are presented as prospects or predictions rather than demonstrated outcomes, and no empirical data are reported to support them.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-13, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-13 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
