Lecture Notes from Spring Fall 2006 are HERE.

BCMB 8110 (Protein Structure and Function)

All class notes can be found HERE. This class provides an in depth look at the many biochemical and biophysical approaches that are employed to detail the structure and function of many important biological macromolecules. Significant understanding of these approaches and problems is gained through a "hands on" set of computational assignments.
