Abstract
This study takes a look at the relationship between information technology and the science of genetic engineering. It explains how bioinformatics originated, explaining the variousfields involved. This study briefly explains how information technology has helped solve complex biological problems by introducing learning conditional transducer algorithm whichprovides a framework for understanding DNA sequence comparison algorithms, many of which have been used by biologists to make important inferences about gene function and evolutionary history. We will also apply learning conditional transducer algorithm to gene finding and other bioinformatics problems,thus making it much simpler and more resourceful.
