| Number of credits : |
|
 |
| Lecturer : | Bernard Rogister |
 |
Language(s) of instruction :
 |
| French language |
 |
Course contents :
 |
| This lecture part is dedicated to protein biochemistry. The major chapters are :
1. From sequence to structure
2. From structure to function
3. Control of protein function
4. From sequence to function |
 |
Learning outcomes of the course :
 |
| 1. To be able to explain in details the structure of a protein the energetic and steric constraints that the protein faces when it folds to its native structure.
2. Being able to calculate various parameters of enzymatic reactions in Michaelis-Menten and non Michaelis-Menten reactions.
3. To known and being able to explain the various post-translational modifications undergone by proteins and the functional consequences of these changes.
4. To known and being able to explain the principles of the various methods of protein analysis.
5. To increase its passive knowledge of scientific English. |
 |
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :
 |
| General Biology, general cytology, general Biochemistry (partim I) and general physiology. |
 |
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :
 |
| The theoretical lectures will be "ex-cathedra". Laboratory works will be organized as five seminars. During these seminars, major experiments having given place to new concepts in protein biochemistry will be described. These interactive seminars impose the student to think about the questions addressed by the researchers, of the methods implemented by researchers to answer these questions and of the importance of the analysis of results. These seminars proceed in French. |
 |
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :
 |
| Lectures
Program and schedule detailed in vade-mecum
Practical work
Program and schedule detailed in vade-mecum |
 |
Recommended or required readings :
 |
| English text book is available in the Intranet. The students will also have access to the electronic files of illustrations of the lectures. Lastly, addresses and the accesses to several web sites specialized in this field will be given to the students. |
 |
Assessment methods and criteria :
 |
| Written and oral examination on lectures and concepts developed during seminars is organized according to the general program of the studies. |
