BMEN 5326 - Biomolecular Engineering

3 hours

Engineering biomolecular components provides a means to create novel, programmable functions in cells and other biological systems. These components can be proteins with different biological roles and other macromolecules. The advent of biomolecular engineering leads to emerging strategies of protein design and protein construction. This course discusses these strategies in the aspects of designing macromolecules, generating libraries of these parts, and screening desirable candidates. Additionally, it aims to train students in reading, analyzing, and discussing materials from academic research articles.

Prerequisite(s): Graduate classification; consent of instructor.
