About this work

Description

"With the recognition of the importance of accurate database annotation and the requirement for individuals with particular constellations of skills to carry it out, annotators are emerging as specialists within the profession of bioinformatics. This book compiles information about annotation - its current status, what is required to improve it, what skills must be brought to bear on database curation and hence what is the proper training for annotators."--BOOK JACKET.
