Structure-Function and Kinetics of DNA Metabolic Enzymes
MB&B 532 SP

The key to understanding how enzyme catalysts work is to understand their structure and properties, and the kinetics and thermodynamics of their reactions. In this course you will learn how the principles of kinetics and thermodynamics are used to investigate the mechanisms of action of these biological machines. The focus, in particular, will be on learning the workings of enzymes responsible for DNA replication, repair, and recombination.
