GURMARG IAS COACHING INSTITUTE (Bioinformatics)


Bioinformatics is science of reposing, retrieving and analyzing an ample amount of biological data. It ideals with the biological data from research for the use of further research purposes. It is a hybrid science which basically link the biological data with the storage, distribution, and analysis which ultimately is used for scientific research in multiple areas like bio medicine etc. This science is fed by data generation experiments such as genomic sequence resolutions and magnitudes of gene expression patterns.  Data base projects accumulate and annotate the data after which the data is being distributed on World Wide Web. Meanwhile, this information is needed for the scientific discoveries which lead its use in different fields especially in the field of medicine. For example, bioinformatics is used to correlate the disease and gene sequence, to predict structure of protein from amino acid,  help to design novel drugs, and for the treatment of patients individually on the basis of their DNA sequence.  Bioinformatics is highly interdisciplinary field which involves different specialists like molecular life scientists, mathematicians, computer scientists and biologists importantly. Previously bioinformatics was used only for storing and analyzing biological data and biomolecular sequence data but the term now encompasses computational structural biology, system biology and chemical biology. Sections which are encompassed in the term bioinformatics broadly include; molecular structures, gene-protein and metabolic expressions, protein sequence and families, genome and variations, chemical biology and system. This technique is a medium for storage the variations and modifications in genome sequence which ultimately is the reason for biological existence.

Gene therapy

Gene is a hereditary unit which is transferred from parent to off spring and is responsible for determination of some characteristics of offspring’s. The technique was first developed in 1972 but has, so far, had limited success in treating human diseases. Gene therapy is a technique which uses genes to prevent or treat the disease. This is an experimental technique, which in future, is expected to allow doctors to treat disease/disorder by introducing a gene into the cell of patient instead of drugs and surgery. Gene is made up of DNA. When a new DNA is introduced into the cell of patient to treat a genetic disorders the technique is called gene therapy.   Diseases are mostly caused by disease-causing mutated genes, usually new DNA contains a functional gene to correct the effect of mutation caused by mutated gene. The DNA is selected carefully to correct the disease causing gene. Gene therapy is a topic of interest now a days, as many research approaches are testing includi...

GURMARG EDUCATION IDEA

Image
The objective of education is to relate it to the life, needs and aspirations of the people and thereby make it the powerful instrument of social, economic and cultural transformation necessary for the realization of the national goals. Education is cardinal in inculcating values, to provide skills and competencies for the citizens, and in enabling them to contribute to the nation’s well-being; strengthens democracy by empowering citizens; acts as a cohesive force in society, and fosters national identity . One cannot over -emphasize the role of Education as the key catalyst for promoting socio-economic mobility in building an equitable and just society.  “A king is honoured only in his own country, but one who is learned is honoured throughout the world." The ultimate aim of education in ancient India was not knowledge, as preparation for life, but for the complete realization of human potential. The Indian education system attempted to preserve ancient culture and promote...
