CHEM 436 - Advanced Protein Chemistry

(3 cr) The course is designed as an independent/directed study with a weekly seminar component. The material to be covered will be an in-depth review of the structure and function relationships of proteins. Computer modeling and structure analysis and review of the current primary research literature will be used. The course is divided into four major topics of discussion: Part 1, a review of secondary and tertiary structure; Part 2, folding patterns and analysis and prediction of structure; Part 3, specific enzymology and protein chemistry; and Part 4, analysis of protein function by protein engineering and biophysical methods.
