| Prerequisites: | none |
| Target skills and knowledge: | Basic knowledge on advanced techniques used to perform a qualitative and quantitative characterization of naturally occurring biomolecules (proteins, polysaccharides and nucleic acids).
In particular the course will Introduce the students to the design, production and use of biodrugs. |
| Examination methods: | The final exam will be written |
| Assessment criteria: | the student will be evaluated on its abitiies to criticallly correlated the main topics dicussed duringthe course |
| Course unit contents: | Biodrugs: basic concept; production; purification; storage Evaluation of the potential application of pharmacologically active macromolecules
Optimization of pharmacologically active macromolecules combinatorial approaches relevant examples (enzymes, hormones, antibodies, nucleic acids) Data analysis electrophoretic tecniques (2D; sequencing, EMSA,CE) Spectroscopic tecniques (CD, Fret, fluorescence quencing) MIcrocalorimetric tecniques (ITC, DSC) Biosensors (SPR) computational tools |
| Planned learning activities and teaching methods: | A main module of teaching will provide the basic concept.
This will be inegrated with - practical experience on some analitical techniques - example of critical reading of literature papers - lessons hold by experts in selected topics |
| Additional notes about suggested reading: | All the slides presented during the couse will be provided.
In additions literature papers will be suggested during the lessons |
| Textbooks (and optional supplementary readings) |
