BCH 613 - Molecular Biophysics

(3 units)
Molecular basis of structural biology and biological catalysis; protein, membrane and polysaccharide conformation; supra molecular assembly; enzyme kinetics; molecular recognition.

Units of Lecture: 3
Offered: Every Spring
Student Learning Outcomes:
Upon completion of this course:
1. Students will be able to predict how physical and chemical environments influence protein structure and function.
2. Students will be able to describe how the amino acid sequence influences a protein’s final native conformation.
3. Students will be able to identify the appropriate analytical techniques and approaches to define and characterize the native conformation of protein.
4. Students will be able to calculate the kinetic parameters governing the catalytic properties of an enzyme.
5. Students will be able to articulate an understanding of how allosteric and post-translational modifications regulated enzyme activity.
