Abstract

Bioinformatics technology has many applications in the research of novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. By sequencing the whole genome of the collected samples, the target genetic code can be obtained. The analysis of sample virus strains on the genetic information level could help study the mutation degree and evolution process of the virus, providing help for tracing the source of the virus, and finally guiding the prevention and control of the epidemic situation. However, the variants of SARS-CoV-2 have evolved rapidly, which has brought challenges to vaccine research and development, as well as epidemic prevention and control. In this paper, the bioinformatics technology applied in the relevant research of novel coronavirus is comprehensively described. Researchers can provide effective information for virus tracing by using second-generation and third-generation sequencing and nucleic acid analysis.
