A Geometrical Approach to Genome Analysis: Skew & Z-Curve

Description

In this course, you will learn :

• Analyze complete genome using a geometrical method
• Plot 2D- and 3D graphs in Python
• Calculate, plot, and save complete genome profile
• How to analyse a complete viral genome in Python using geometrical methods (skews and Z-curve), 2D- and 3D-plotting, and how to use some important Python libraries to help you do so (such as Tkinter, Matplotlib, and NumPy).
• Learn about the genomes of some viruses, such as Corona, SARS, HIV, Zika, Nidovirous, and rubella.
