Molecular chaperones and cellular protein homeostasis
BCH 2024H
In this course, different molecular chaperone families will be discussed in detail. The structure and mechanism of function of these chaperones will be described and their cellular functions will be examined.
In the first lecture, I will give an overview of the prokaryotic molecular chaperones. Subsequently, a set number of students will present in each session on eukaryotic chaperones of a given family and lead a discussion of the papers. All students read the papers. Each student will present twice. The last 5 minutes of the class will be dedicated to the evaluation of the presenters by their fellow students.
