3D SARS-CoV-19 Protein Visualization With Biopython

Description

In this course, you will :

• Create an interactive three-dimensional (3D) representation of SARS-CoV-19 (Coronavirus) protein structures and publication-quality images of the same, understand the properties of the SARS-CoV-19 genome, handle biological sequence data stored in FASTA, PDB (Protein Data Bank), and XML format, and derive insights from this data using Biopython
• This hands-on project will also provide you with an overview of the tasks that a Bioinformatician performs on a daily basis, as well as current concepts and database use cases in the field of Medical Research and Human Genetics.
• Also cover the fundamentals of important databases used by biologists and biotechnologists, as well as the types of sequence data we can access and visualise using Biopython and Jupyter notebook.

Syllabus :

• Introduction to Biopython
• Understand FASTA file format
• Sequence manipulation using Biopython
• Transcription & Translation studies
• Perform Basic Local Alignment using NCBI-BLAST
• Reading PDB file
• Visualizing SARS-CoV-19 Protein structures
