    Homology modeling of proteins

Subject lessons “Homology modeling of proteins”:
The introduction of the database of protein structures and classifications of PDB protein structures SCOP and CATH. The introduction of the servers that help to build a model protein (Genesilico metaserver, Swiss-Model, I-tasser). Running of models of sequence on different servers.
Working with the program of three-dimensional structures of proteins in PDB format (Accelrys Visualizer, PyMOL) view and theirs main features. The study of the PDB format.
Structural alignment. Comparison of the models obtained by different methods, and real structures. Using PyMOL and Accelrys Visualizer for preparing the illustrations.
