After completion of the course, the student has the following skills:
-Understanding covering the protein research field as an entity
-Analytical perspective for the protein expression systems and their suitability for different purposes
-Knowledge and training to prepare research plan covering protein production and protein interactions relevant for development of diagnostic tools or for industrial applications.

This course provides deeper insight into the protein structure-function and how to manipulate proteins. Specific topics: Mutagenesis, protein models, directed evolution, protein expression and purification, structural biology (NMR, X-ray crystallography). Every student prepares written research plan focusing on selected topic involving protein technology.
