RECOMBINANT PROTEINS

At the end of the course the students should demonstrate to understand the issues related to the production of recombinant proteins. In particular, the students should be able to:
1) describe the processes of expression and purification of a recombinant protein (KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING)
2) use basic on-line programs for sequence analysis (KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING)
3) describe techniques, tools and protocols for the main methods of recombinant protein production (KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING)
4) understand the main issues in the production of recombinant proteins (APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING)
5) apply the knowledge on recombinant proteins production to real problems, in the lab or during a simulation (APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING)
