External form

1. Successful mastery of the academic disciplines "Chemistry", "General Cytology", "Bioorganic Chemistry", "Biochemistry". 2. Ability to independently apply knowledge of chemistry, physics, cytology, bioorganic chemistry, etc. disciplines to solve specific practical problems; work with literature. 3. Possession of basic skills of systems analysis.

The discipline introduces students to modern principles of structure, classification, physicochemical properties and biological functions of proteins and peptides. Special attention is paid to the most important characteristics of amino acids, which make them unique elements of all living proteins. The concepts of the levels of structural organization of protein molecules, the domain principle of their construction and the fundamental nature of the meaning and functions of proteins, which are directly determined by their structure, are also provided. The concept of folding, its dynamics and control mechanisms are considered. The discipline presents modern ideas about the classification of proteins, as well as prospects for the study, production and use of peptides in pharmaceuticals and various industries.
