Course Details
• Protein Interactions Fundamentals: Overview of protein interaction concepts, including the importance of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) in cellular processes and signaling pathways. • Protein Structure and Function: Analysis of protein structures, domains, folds, and motifs that facilitate PPIs, with a focus on understanding how protein structure determines protein function. • Experimental Techniques for Studying PPIs: Examination of laboratory methods used to study PPIs, including yeast two-hybrid screens, co-immunoprecipitation, and protein microarrays. • Computational Approaches to Predicting PPIs: Exploration of computational tools and algorithms used to predict PPIs, such as docking simulations, machine learning algorithms, and network analysis techniques. • High-throughput PPIs Analysis: Overview of high-throughput experimental techniques and computational approaches for large-scale PPI analysis, such as affinity purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) and protein correlation profiling (PCP). • Protein Interaction Networks and Systems Biology: Analysis of protein interaction networks and their role in cellular systems, including the use of network analysis techniques to understand cellular processes and signaling pathways. • Drug Discovery through Protein Interactions: Examination of how PPIs can be targeted for drug discovery, including the design and development of small molecule inhibitors, peptide-based inhibitors, and antibody-based therapies. • Case Studies in Protein Interactions: Analysis of real-world case studies illustrating the importance of PPIs in cellular processes, disease mechanisms, and drug discovery.
