Connecting Common Genetic Polymorphisms To Protein Function: A Modular Project Sequence For Lecture Or Lab, Christopher E. Berndsen, Byron H. Young, Quinlin Mccormick*, Raymond A. Enke
Ray Enke Ph.D.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DNA can result in phenotypes where the biochemical basis may not be clear due to the lack of protein structures. With the growing number of modeling and simulation software available on the internet, students can now participate in determining how small changes in genetic information impact cellular protein structure and function. We have developed a modular series of activities to engage lab or lecture students in examining the basis for common phenotypes. The activities range from basic phenotype test- ing/observation to DNA sequencing and simulation of protein structure and dynamics. We provide as an exam- …
