DNA Processing Based on Microarrays and Sequencing

Abstract

Since the early 1990s the evolution of the technologies has brought considerable change in the area of DNA processing. Although we can read and process DNA, the analysis of the collected data still remains a vast research area. This paper presents a brief overview of human DNA processing from an informatics (bioinformatics) point of view. The paper explains the basic structure of DNA and outlines the importance of DNA processing. The main part of the article describes the procedure of transformation and DNA processing. We will also discuss the historical development of the available data processing methods. We will look at the major differences in data sequencing and processing using the DNA chip. The article is concluded with an assumption of data processing.
