Abstract: A fundamental axiom of biology is the cascade that amino-acid sequence determines protein structure, and in turn protein structure determines protein function. In this lecture, we will introduce the mathematical problems and methods for analyzing and modeling DNA sequence and protein structure, such as DNA sequencing, sequence alignment, haplotype reconstruction, protein structure prediction, protein structure alignment.
