Protein Discovery and Analysis - CBMS832
This unit outlines molecular principles underlying today's developments in protein science. As well as detailing modern separation technologies, the unit addresses structural biology, protein analysis and sequence informatics. Practices common in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries to purify macromolecules (including recombinant proteins) are emphasised. Analysis methods are introduced in relation to proteomics, genomics and biomedical research. Molecular properties leading to the 3D shape of proteins are detailed, and contemporary structure methods outlined. Practical and project segments of the unit develop critical interpretation and involve hands-on protein skills, molecular graphics and use of key web-based resources.
