THIRD HANDS-ON COMPUTATIONAL ENZYME DESIGN COURSE (INDUSTRY)

650,00

Do you need to engineer your protein of interest? Do you wish to employ user-friendly one-stop-shop software tools for the design of mutations and libraries, but do not want to spend time on tedious installations or with the Unix command-line? This interactive course will provide the essential theory and hands-on experience on a number of web-based tools suitable for mining new enzymes, engineering the activity, specificity, enantioselectivity, stability, and solubility of enzymes.

Popis

You will have the chance to learn and discuss with the developers of these tools the optimal ways to set-up calculations and adequately interpret the results. At the end of this 3-day course, you will be able to design different properties of proteins for your academic research or commercial applications on your own.

Web-tools covered: EnzymeMinerHotSpot WizardFireProtFireProtASRFireProtDBCalFitterCaver WebCaverDockLoopGrafterSolubis and SoluProt. Our web tools integrate individual software, and altogether, you will get automated access to more than 50 computational methods and 15 databases.
