Python for bioinformatics: Getting started with sequence analysis in Python
A Biopython tutorial about DNA, RNA and other sequence analysis

In this post, I am going to discuss how Python is being used in the field of bioinformatics and how you can use it to analyze sequences of DNA, RNA, and proteins. Yeah, Python is being used by biologists as well. Before I get into coding, I’d like to give a brief background of bioinformatics and related things. What is bioinformatics? According to Wikipedia: Bioinformatics  is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding biological data. As an interdisciplinary field of science, bioinformatics combines biology, computer science, information engineering, mathematics and statistics to analyze and interpret biological data. Bioinformatics has been used for in silico analyses of…
