Course content

3 sections10 lectures1h 18m total length
  • An Introduction to DNA7:40

    Explore how deoxyribonucleic acid stores instructions in the nucleus, with nuclear and mitochondrial DNA shaping the genome, and how replication, transcription to mRNA, and translation produce proteins.

  • DNA Archetypes6:58

    Explore the dna double helix with a c g t bases and five prime ends, replication forks, rna primers, Okazaki fragments, dna polymerase, leading lagging strands, and semi-conservative replication.

  • DNA Sequencing: Part 17:50

    Explore the DNA sequencing process by fragmenting DNA, inserting into plasmids, and using terminator bases and fluorescence to read sequences through electrophoresis and color detection.

  • DNA Sequencing: Part 21:00

    Show the DNA amplification process with a thermal cycler, detailing heating to 95 degrees Celsius, annealing at 55–65 degrees Celsius, and primer extension at 72 degrees Celsius.

  • DNA | RNA | Protein3:04

    Explore how DNA and genes direct protein production through transcription of messenger RNA and translation by ribosomes using transfer RNA to assemble amino acids.

Requirements

  • Macbook or iMac with Swift 4 Xcode 9 or Swift 3 Xcode 8

Description

DNA Hacking with Swift 4 | Xcode 9 : An Introduction to Bioinformatics starts the student off with a crash course on DNA. The student will then learn how to preprocess and save datasets from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) like the included 4 datasets in the NCBI dataset file included with this course. The student will learn BioSwift, a set of custom code snippet collections used for biological computation written in pure Swift. The student will learn to build and save custom code snippets and Swift "biocollections" for current as well as future bioinformatics projects written in pure Swift. 

 You will learn how to use BioSwift and its biocollections to help you research 

  • Statistics
  • Datasets
  • Genomes
  • Neucleotides
  • Chromosomes
  • mRNA 
  • DNA sequences.  

Who this course is for:

  • Apple Developers interested in Data Science with emphasis on DNA
