4) Conformational properties of proteins
4.1 Secondary and ternary structures of proteins
4.2 Spectroscopic properties od proteins in solution
5) Biophysical properties of soluble and membranar properties
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The course will be devoted to the structural and chemical properties of proteins.
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Lectures in general biochemistry
Thermodynamic and classical physic
Organic chemistry
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
30 h of practical course, dedicated to protein purification and enzyme catalysis
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
The recommendations from the FWB stipulate that all the lectures need to be teach by visioconference. The students will have access to the commented ppt peesentations and lessons will be organised in fucntion of the time schedule defined in "Celcat"

Assessment methods and criteria
Below you will find information on the evaluation methods planned for in-person and remote exams as well as those planned for hybrid sessions. Depending on how the health crisis evolves, the chosen method will be communicated to you no later than one month before the start of the exam session.
Any session :
- In-person
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire, open-ended questions ) AND oral exam
- Remote
written exam
- If evaluation in "hybrid"
preferred in-person
Additional information:
The evaluation will be an oral examen which include one problem to solve and one open question.
