BTEC 275 - Introduction to Protein Expression and Analysis

2 lecture hours, 3 lab hours, 3 credit hours
Introduction to common techniques used for studying the expression and analysis of proteins and builds on the basic techniques for quantitation of protein concentration in solution. Studies include quantitation of single proteins, Electrophoretic techniques for estimating protein molecular weight and estimation of protein activity using basic Michaelis-Menten enzyme kinetics. Intended for students admitted to the Science Laboratory Technology degree program. Prerequisite(s): “C” or higher in BTEC 274 and admission to the Science Labortory Technology degree program or permission of instructor.
