Biomolecular Structure and Function Laboratory

Catalog description

Corequisite(s): CHEM 453 The practical laboratory course introduces students to methods in structural biology that focus on the study of proteins and nucleic acids. Computational methods include comparative sequence analysis, ab initio and comparative molecular modeling, molecular dynamics simulations, and structure calculations based on experimental data. Experimental studies are analyzed to demonstrate the correlations between functional activity and structural features of biomolecules. Semester(s) Offered: Fall
