• • How to Interpret Tables of GO, KEGG, and COG Analysis in Bioinformatics

  GO (Gene Ontology) Analysis 1. Bar Chart (1) Y-axis: Displays GO terms, with only the most significant ones shown if the list is extensive. (2) X-axis: Represents either -log(p-value) or the number of associated genes. A higher -log(p-value) indicates stronger statistical significance.   2. Bubble Chart (1) X-axis: Represents -log(p-value), where a larger value corresponds to stronger statistical significance. (2) Y-axis: Indicates the number of genes associated with each GO term. (3) Bubble size: Ref......

• • What Does Bioinformatics Analysis Involve

  Bioinformatics analysis is an interdisciplinary field that integrates computational science, mathematics, and statistical methods to process and interpret biological data, particularly in molecular biology. In recent years, the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technologies (such as RNA-seq, ChIP-seq, and whole genome sequencing) has significantly expanded the role of bioinformatics in biomedical research, drug discovery, and precision medicine. Bioinformatics analysis typically consists......

• • What Is the Process of LC-MS Data Analysis

  Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data analysis generally follows the workflow outlined below: Data Preprocessing: 1. The initial step involves preprocessing raw LC-MS data, which primarily includes peak detection, peak identification, and peak extraction. This process can be conducted using specialized data processing software or programming languages. 2. Subsequently, denoising is performed to eliminate background noise and unwanted signals, thereby enhancing data quality and improving......
