Subject: 21.10.19 FEBS advanced course Computational Approaches to Understanding and Engineering Enzyme Catalysis
Dear Colleagues, FEBS advanced course Computational Approaches to Understanding and Engineering Enzyme Catalysis will be held from 19 to 22 October 2021 in Oulu / FINLAND in a hybrid way (both PHYSICAL and ONLINE participation is possible). Registrations are open until 30 June 2021. For detailed information and application criteria please visit the FEBS2021 website https://computationalenzymeengineering2021.febsevents.org/ The programme is available here: https://computationalenzymeengineering2021.febsevents.org/programme-features Five focus topics of the advanced course are: EBI: Rossana Zaru - Enzyme Portal: a portal for enzyme resources at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI) and beyond MD: Gerrit Groenhof - An introduction into molecular dynamics simulations of proteins DynaComm: Silvia Osuna - Conformationally-driven computational enzyme design: development and application of correlation-based tools for distal active site mutation PROSS/FuncLib: Sarel-Jacob Fleishman - (i) Automated design of proteins for high expression and stability; (ii) Automated design of efficient and functionally diverse enzymes Caver Web: Jiri Damborsky - Engineering ligand access pathways Six complementary lectures are: Birte Hocker - De novo protein design and its experimental validation Adrian Mulholland - General Introduction on enzyme engineering and on MD-QM/MM calculations for understanding of enzyme-catalyzed reactions Aleksandra Marsavelski - The EVB method: in silico approach for understanding the mechanism of enzyme catalysis James Fraser - Ensembles of Ensembles: How multiple conformations exist within and between protein structures Reinhard Sterner - Analysis of allostery in a multi-enzyme complex by ancestral sequence reconstruction Mikael Widersten - Pre-steady state and steady-state kinetics of designed enzymes Best regards, The Scientific Organizing Committee, Rikkert Wierenga, Outi Lampela, Tiina Salminen and Aleksandra MarsavelskiNOTE THAT E-MAIL ADDRESSES HAVE BEEN MODIFIED!!!
