Although new technology has led to unprecedented accuracy of the sequence, incomplete and challenging assemblies, along with imperfect predictive methods, are still generating gene models that require verification. With the sequence analysis skills learned from this book, features such as missing exons and incorrect termini can be easily recognised and more accurate gene models can be constructed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47607448076524,"sku":"9780815344568","price":132.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780815344568-practical-bioinformatics.jpg?v=1778164227"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/michael-agostino.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
