Processing of secondary structures in nucleic acids

This work explores and studies basic methods of bioinformatics - new and perspective branch of computer science. Introduces the term Bioinformatics, familiarizes with necessary biological background (DNA and RNA molecules, proteins, central dogma of molecular biology) and also with basic bioinformatics terms (biological sequence, primary and secondary structure). It also demonstrates the implementation of basic bioinformatics algorithms and their use with real data (on Foot-and-mouth disease virus) - motif finding, longest common subsequence and sequence alignment. This work also introduces higher structures of biological sequences, primarily with secondary structure of RNA molecule
