Course content
The discipline "Methods of Protein and Peptide Purification" provides students with a theoretical understanding of the full range of modern laboratory methods for purifying target proteins. During laboratory classes, students acquire practical skills in fractionating a mixture of protein molecules using the method of precipitation and various types of chromatography. Attention is also paid to the development of a comprehensive strategy for the purification of target proteins, i.e. optimization of the entire technological process in order to obtain the maximum yield of the target protein of high purity with a minimum number of steps.
