| Department: | Chemistry |
| Description: | Second half semester course. The design of new proteins is a challenging and scientifically useful endeavor. Current and potential applications are exciting, ranging from improved enzymes for biotechnological production of chemicals like biofuel, to the design of research tools like biosensors and drugs that act as inhibitors or highly specialized vaccines. This course will cover topics such as force-fields for energy calculations, Monte-Carlo sampling, directed evolution, and de novo protein design. The course will investigate protein design through primary literature readings and hands on computational design using cutting-edge software. |
