Dr. Panjwani Center for Molecular Medicine and Drug Research-PCMD (International Center for Chemical and Biological Sciences), University of Karachi is going to organize “2nd National Workshop on Classical Protein Chemistry: Understanding the Executioners of Life” during January 5-7, 2016 at PCMD-ICCBS, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.
Aim and Scope
- Understanding the structure and function of proteins is fundamental in biological and biomedical sciences as they have the central role in all cellular activities.
- Protein chemistry is an area of biochemistry related to purifying proteins, investigating protein structure-function relationship and engineering proteins.
- Protein chemistry contributes in many areas of biotechnology, involving recombinant DNA technology, analytical chemistry, clinical chemistry, medicinal chemistry, and protein therapeutics.
This workshop will provide an introduction to the methods and tools used in protein chemistry. It is designed for attendees who have fundamental knowledge of biology. Topics include the isolation and estimation of protein, protein purification techniques, including gel filtration, ion exchange chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and classical and modern sequencing techniques. Hands-on exercises on these techniques will be provided during workshop.
Registration
This workshop is designed for attendees of life sciences background, with fundamental knowledge of biochemistry and molecular biology. Participation is open for researchers from academia, R&D institutions, and industries.
