S1722: Kinky Macromolecules in Splash Spring Splash 2018 (May. 05, 2018)

This will be a crash course on proteins. We will focus on structure for the entirety of the course as we move from primary to secondary to tertiary and then to quaternary structure. The different intermolecular forces that influence structure and lead to function will be touched upon. If possible, we will also learn how to model proteins with toobers. We will look at a 3 dimensional model of a common protein found in the human body and analyze how it is able to function the way that it does.
