Content

Interdisciplinary seminar in structural biology at the interface of chemistry, physics, biology and medicine. An invited guest lecturer will be talking about selected aspects of structural biology (e.g. structure elucidation by NMR, special aspects of protein crystallography), students attending will prepare short presentation and discussions in the area of structural biology and different facets thereof

Previous knowledge expected

Participation in Basic Course I - Analysis, Design and Engineering of Proteins

Objective (expected results of study and acquired competences)

Improved knowledge of structural biology of proteins, conformational and thermal stability, as well as (un-)folding pathway(s). Profound understanding of methods in analysis of protein structure, quality and stability.
Understanding of design of protein libraries, methods in mutagenesis, surface display technologies and screening strategies. Knowledge of methods for protein engineering and studies in enzyme kinetics and protein – ligand (protein) interaction.
