Course objectives
The goal of the course is deepening the theoretical knowledge and getting hands-on experience in the fields of proteome analysis using mass spectrometry, protein separation, preparation of recombinant DNA, expression and purification of recombinant proteins and their functional characterization.
Learning outcomes
After completion of the course, the student will understand pronciples of the basic proteomics approaches, i.e. structural and functional study of proteins using recombinant proteins technology, protein separation using different techniques, predominantly two-dimensional electrophoresis and liquid chromatography and basic techniques of protein mass spectrometry. Students will be able to practically apply those approaches during solution of recent problems of both basic and applied research.
Syllabus
  • Mass spectrometry of proteins (MALDI-TOF, LC-MS/MS, sample preparation and analysis, protein identification)
  • Expression of recombinant DNA in E.coli
  • Single and multistep purification of recombinant proteins
  • Purity determination and analysis of recombinant proteins
  • Western blotting
  • Work with protein databases
  • Determining 3D conformation of proteins with similar AA sequence
