Content
The course covers essential and advanced aspects of enzyme kinetics that can be applied in a PhD work. Emphasis is on experimental and computational aspects.
Learning outcome
The candidate will, upon completion of the course, be able to (i) design and test experimental assays to determine/estimate the essential characteristics/parameters for one or several multi substrate enzymatic processes, (ii) design mechanisms and test then by means of mathematical modelling (computational methods and sensitivity analysis), (iii) have a understandig for environmental and regulational factors that has an impact on simple and composed enzymatic processes.
Forkunnskapskrav
Master degree in biological chemistry or similar.

Lectures, group work, lab exercises and excersises in mathematical modelling. In addition, the student will work on a mandatory project that will be handed in at the end of the course.
Åpent for
Admission to Single Courses at the Faculty of Science and Technology
Emneevaluering
There must be an early dialogue between the course supervisor, the student union representative and the students. The purpose is feedback from the students for changes and adjustments in the course for the current semester.In addition, a digital course evaluation must be carried out at least every three years. Its purpose is to gather the students experiences with the course.
