Bioinformatics has been integrated into a number of different disciplines where it assists in better understanding of the data in a shorter time frame 2. With the massive advancement in information technology, bioinformatics is growing rapidly providing new ways and approaches for the assessment of valuable data 3.Data mining and manipulations is an important aspect of bioinformatic 4. It allows researchers to collect, store, catalogue and analyse information in unique format that is easily manipulated for future research 5. Some examples of data manipulation include molecular online tools and the bio extract server 6. It is useful for accessing bimolecular data from many sources for many purposes.
