Course objectives
CB080 is the exercise connected to the course CB070. The aim of the subject is to teach students to perform three basic steps of protein diffraction crystallography: to process synchrotron diffraction data (= data reduction), to solve the phase problem and to perform refinement of the model.
Learning outcomes
CB080 is the exercise connected to the course CB070. Student will be trained in processing of synchrotron diffraction data and work with PDB, and he/she will understand basic principles of work with CCP4 and a map of electron density too.
