Bioinformatics is the use of information technology to store, organise, and interpret large amounts of biological data, such as sequences and structures of proteins and nucleic acids (the building blocks of organisms) (the information carrier). Nucleic acid biological knowledge is available as sequences, while protein data is available as sequences. Sequences are interpreted in a single dimension, while sequences' three-dimensional data is stored in the structure. Sequences are a type of pattern. There was a lot of enthusiasm in the world of Molecular Biology when Sanger first discovered the method to sequence proteins. The need to build databases of biological sequences sparked initial interest in Bioinformatics.
