Abstract

Exploration of mysterious facts from the sequences and structures of biomolecules of an organism is the essential requirement for understanding their molecular and evolutionary processes. Sequence analysis approach is an exciting choice for exploring those mysterious facts from biological data at genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic level. Development of bioinformatics tools is the most challenging task for analyzing these biological data at above three levels. In this communication, an attempt has been made to develop a bioinformatics program “Biological Data Analysis Program (BDAP)” having the ability to analyze the DNA/RNA/protein sequence data at molecular level. It also includes the links of various online databases, tools, search engines and many of the prestigious journals. The coding of the program has been done in Perl language. BDAP is freely available at https://sites.google.com/site/dwivediplanet/bdap under the terms and conditions of GNU General Public License.
