Course objectives
This practical course is focused on protein expression and purification (cytochrome b5 and/or c). It is possible to express an alternative protein of student's choice, the student has to discuss, however, this with the head of this course.
Syllabus
  • This practical course is focused on protein expression and purification (cytochrome b5 and/or c). It is possible to express an alternative protein of student's choice, the student has to discuss, however, this with the head of this course. Main topics of this course: 1) cell-growth and OD monitoring 2) centrifugation and sonication 3) vertical and horizontal ELFO 4) purification of the expressed protein using liquid chromatography The student(s) will prepare all buffers and media as well as gels as a part of this course. The protocols and other materials will be provided handed to the student during the first informative course.
Literature
  • Pollock, W.B.R., Rosell, F.I., Twitchett, M.B., Dumont, M.E. & Mauk, A.G. (1998) Bacterial expression of a mitochondrial cytochrome c. Trimethylation of lys72 in yeast iso-1-cytochrome c and alkaline conformational transition. Biochemistry 37, 6124-6131.
Assessment methods
In this practical course, the student is awarded graded credit after a completion of the course with 100% participation. The student's understanding of the process of protein expression is controlled continuously through discussions during the practical course.
