Cíle předmětu
Structural biology and bioinformatics are scientific disciplines derived from molecular biology, biochemistry, biophysics and computer sciences. These disciplines focus on the understanding of living organisms at the level of individual macromolecules and their interactions. Bioinformatics is the information technology for obtaining, storing, analyzing and distributing biological data. Structural biology enables determining or predicting structure of macromolecules and investigating structure-function relationships.
Learning outcomes:
- description of macromolecular structure
- download and basic analysis of structure quality and identification of errors
- experimental structural methods and structure prediction in silico - analysis of function, dynamics and stability
- effect of mutation on structure, function, dynamics and stability of macromolecules
Výstupy z učení
On successful completion of the course, the students will be able to:
- understand basic principles of structural bioinformatics and structural biology
- study and analyze structures of macromolecules and experimental methods for their determination
- identify and obtain structures of macromolecules from bioinformatics databases
- identify possible errors in the protein structures
- predict structure of macromolecules and theirs complexes
analyze protein structures to acquire information about their function, dynamics and stability evaluate an effect of mutations on biological function.
Osnova
  • 1. Introduction to the structure of macromolecules – composition, methods for determination, application in biology, visualization.
  • 2. Structure of biomolecules – different levels of structure of proteins and nucleic acids
  • 3. Bioinformatics databases and structure prediction – sequence databases, structural databases, retrieval and evaluation of macromolecular structures
  • 4. Models of structures – structural databases, validation and methods for quality assessment, preparation of models.
  • 5. Stability and dynamics of macromolecules – analysis of molecular dynamics and stability, prediction of stability, databases.
  • 6. Analysis of protein structures – identification of important regions: binding/active sites, aggregation propensity, transport pathways, flexible regions, binding/catalytic amino acids.
  • 7. Protein-ligand complexes – evaluation of complexes, analysis of interactions, druggability, databases, transport of small molecules.
  • 8. Macromolecular complexes and interactions – protein-protein and protein-DNA complexes, analysis of interactions, databases.
  • 9. Engineering of protein structures –effect of mutations on the protein structure, stability and function.
  • 10. Application of structural biology and bioinformatics – biological research, drug design, engineering of biocatalysts.
