課程概述

This is a class integrates the concepts of structural biology and bioinformatics. The basic principle of amino acids and structre will be explained first, then the modern methods to resolve atomic resolution of protein structures. The relation of protein structure and function will be emphasized in the third part of this class. Bioinformatic principles, methods and modern developments will be followed. 

課程目標
1. Understand amino acids and protein structures.
2. Modern approaches to resolve protein structure.
3. Protein structure and function.
4. Software-based analysis of protein sequence.
5. Bioinformatic theories
6. Current developments of bioinformatics methods. 
課程要求
This class will be taught in English.
