Sommersemester 2012
1. Forschungsseminar: Proteinherstellung und Reinigung
Seminarraum 1.1.33, Mo 10:00-12:002. Topics in Molecular Biophysics: Production of biological samples in biophysics
17.9.2012-21.9.2012 from 9:00 am-18:00 pmLectures about basics e.g. how to mutagenise a protein, cloning techniques, expression and purification of proteins and the underlying cellular processes when expressing a protein will be given prior to the practical exercises in the lab.
Practical exercises : molecular biological techniques e.g. transformation of bacteria with plasmids in preparation of expressing a membrane protein -cultivation of bacteria to express the protein -purification of membrane proteins by affinity chromatography -amplification of DNA by PCR (Polymerase chain reaction) -analysis of DNA with enzymes and agarose-gel-electrophoresis -analysis of proteins on SDS-gels.
