Protein calculator
Sedlo, Petr ; Maděránková, Denisa (referee) ; Škutková, Helena (advisor)
This work is focussed on studying and analysis of protein qualities while using experimental methods which are next confronted with numerical analysis, which have been introduced by the expansion in computer engineering. Within that task I built up a program for calculation of isoelectric point and molecular mass of an entered chain of amino acids. The program will draw a graph of pH dependance of molecular charge in the wide range of pH values in accordance with the given criteria. We can gain results very quickly and easily in this way, however, these results are just a rough estimate. We´re assumed to be aware of this fact because incorrect use of that program where exact analysis is required would cause errors.

Bioinformatics of human genome
Kupková, Karolína ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
Bachelor thesis deals with DNA segments containing only adenine and guanine. The theoretical part describes the structure and composition of deoxyribonucleic acid, chromosomes and genes. There are basic informations about chimpanzees and the human genome and conformations of the chains containing adenine with guanine. The practical part consists of a program that searches for the required sections in sequence, it displays and saves it. The thesis includes analysis of genes which are common for humans and chimpanzees, which were analyzed to determine randomness, functionality a preserving of these sections.

Measuring of conformational properties of nucleic acids
Hrazdilová, Ivana ; Renčiuk,, Daniel (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
This thesis gives a brief characteristic of the most important conformations of nucleic acids. It describes alternative conformations that are different from canonical B-DNA helix, such as A-DNA, Z-DNA, triplex structures, or guanine and cytozin quadruplex structures. In the next part it presents most common methods used for determing secondary structure of nucleic acids, which are nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), measurement of circular dichroism (CD), X-ray diffraction, computational methods, measurements of ultraviolet absorbance and its utilization for analysis of thermal melting curves. In MATLAB was created algorithm with graphical user interface, which analyze melting curves and graphically computes thermodynamic parameters, which are melting temperature and transition enthalpy, which defines stability of examined sample.

Similarity/dissimilarity analysis of genomic data on the basis of graphical representation
Těthal, Jiří ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
The work deals with the identification of species of animal through the density of nucleotids of mitochondrial gene CO1. In the first part the theory summarized information about DNA barcoding and the mitochondria, cellular organel that with this method is closely related. The second part deals with virtually comparing different sequences using the density of nucleotides. For this it was created program, which uses two functions, the first of the specified nucleotide sequence calculates the density and one can compare the density by distance methods.

Identification of Organisms Based on Analysis of Nucleotide Density Vectors
Maděránková, Denisa ; Babula, Petr (referee) ; Schwarz, Daniel (referee) ; Provazník, Ivo (advisor)
Most methods for analysis of genomic data work with symbolic sequences. Numerically represented genomic sequences can be analyzed by signal processing methods. A new method of numerical representation of DNA sequences, nucleotide density vectors, is proposed in this thesis. Usability of this method for purposes of molecular species identification is tested on DNA barcoding sequences. DNA barcoding is modern and popular methodology based on comparison of short mitochondrial DNA sequences. Beside species identification by proposed method based on nucleotide density vectors, higher taxa rank identification (e.g. families) was also tested. Furthermore, dendrograms were constructed from standardly used evolutionary distances and distances between nucleotide density vectors and the dendrograms were compared.

Comparison of mitochondrial DNA for species identification
Labounek, René ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
The work deals with the method of recognizing species on the analysis of mitochondrial DNA segment. This analysis and classification using segment gene called CO1 in literatures such as barcode of life. In the beginning of work is analyzed the mitochondrial theory of heredity and conditions of formation of barcode. Practical use is based on this theory in creating database of barcodes generated to different animal species. Data used for creating the library are drawn from public databases NCBI and BOLD Systems. The next part of this work concerns about methods of comparison of the individual barcodes to the others and especially to the barcode of human. Three main computing methods were used tore these analyses: Needleman-Wunsch algorithm, Smith- Waterman algorithm and comparison of similarities using distance matrix. This work also concerns about transformation of DNA molecule sequences from symbols to numeric formats, which is required for the distance matrix comparison method. Algorithms for searching for a barcode of a species and vice versa were created to ease the work with data.

Prediction of RNA secondary structure
Klímová, Markéta ; Provazník, Ivo (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
RNA secondary structure is very important in many biological processes. Efficient structure prediction can give information for experimental investigations of these processes. Many available programs for secondary structure prediction exist. Some of them use single sequence, the others use more related sequences. Pseudoknots are still problematic for most methods. This work presents several methods and publicly available software and the implementation of minimum free energy method is described.

Methods for phylogenetic supertree reconstruction
Kosíř, Kamil ; Maděránková, Denisa (referee) ; Škutková, Helena (advisor)
The Phylogenetic reconstruction has seen great development in the last 30 years. Computers have become more powerful and more generally accessible, and computer algorithms more sophisticated. It comes the effort of scientists to reconstruct the entire tree of life from a large amount of phylogenetic data. Just for this purpose are formed phylogenetic supertrees that allow the combination of all information gathered so far. The aim of this work is to find a method to construct supertree that will give correct results.

Analysis of animal mitochondrial genes for DNA barcoding
Brabencová, Klára ; Škutková, Helena (referee) ; Maděránková, Denisa (advisor)
The aim of this work is a literature review on the topic of the mitochondrial genome and DNA barcoding, building a dataset of mitochondrial sequences from GenBank database and creatione of a software function for extraction of individual genes that are present in the mitochondrial genome. This function was developed in Matlab. DNA barcoding is a method that uses short DNA sequence of mitochondrial genome for identification of species. There is no comprehensive work examining the appropriateness of different mitochondrial genes. This aim investigates the potential of other mitochondrial genes and evaluate their effectiveness for DNA barcoding and calculation of intra-and interspecific variability.
