The course will be ended by test. Each student will have to also deliver home assignment that describes their particular project with the potential implementation of the methods and techniques discussed during the course. - Course Enrolment Limitations
- The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
- fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
- there are 10 fields of study the course is directly associated with, display
- Course objectives
- The main aim of the course is to discuss the role of protein-mediated interactions in the biology of the cell. At the end of the course students should be able to understand and explain protein-ligand, protein-protein and protein-DNA interactions and motifs responsible for such interactions will be presented in the context of their biological significance. The course will also include theory of individual methods used for study of protein-mediated interactions.
- Syllabus
- 1) General concept DNA RNA PROTEIN; Proteins - their structure, assmebly, and folding; Mad cow and other disease; Domains and motifs; Predictions. 2) Why and how do the proteins interact; Little bit of Math; Data mining; Protein localization (NLS), membrane transport , transport in cytosol etc.); Role of protein interactions (cell cycle, enviroment and hormon responses). 3) Modification of protein interactions, their role and types (phosphorylation, Ubq, Sumo, glycosilation, 4) DNA-protein interactions, types of interaction motivs, their roles (replication, transcription, repair), modification again 5) Methods of study (microscopy, Y2H, FRET, in vitro /pulldow). 6) Methods II (IP,CHIP, far western, EMSA, Biocore etc.). 7) Single protein versus complex of proteins. 8) Examples: DNA repair mechanisms, from single protein to multi-protein complexes. 9) DNA repair II
