Perl Applications in Bioinformatics

This guide provides a practical introduction to Perl programming within a biological context, designed for readers with no prior coding experience. Each chapter focuses on applying Perl to real-world biological problems, featuring clear learning objectives, review questions, self-study exercises, and concise summaries of key concepts. Through numerous practical examples, readers will acquire the skills to perform essential bioinformatics tasks, such as:

  • Automating data manipulation and error correction in spreadsheets
  • Identifying specific sequences and motifs within biological datasets (e.g., locating EcoRI sites in Fasta sequences)
  • Adapting existing Perl scripts for specific research applications
  • Developing reusable and maintainable scripts to streamline bioinformatics workflows
