Analyzing the biochemistry of protein-ligand interactions

Thesis Abstract

This project aims to investigate the biochemistry of protein-ligand interactions, which play a crucial role in various biological processes and have significant implications in drug discovery and design. The project will focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying protein-ligand interactions, including the binding affinity, specificity, and conformational changes induced by ligand binding. Experimental techniques such as X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, and computational modeling will be employed to study protein-ligand complexes. The findings from this project will contribute to the development of novel therapeutic strategies targeting protein-ligand interactions.
