Course description: This course will introduce the different protein sequence databases. You will learn to search for your sequence, identify it and also do some functional analysis. You will also learn about the different types of data and information you can extract: protein interactions, ontologies, pathways. The following resources will be covered: UniProt, IntAct, InterPro, Ontologies and Reactome.
Timetable: Day 1 1000-1030 EBI overview 1030-1045 coffee break 1045-1230 Standards and Ontologies 1230-1330 Lunch 1330-1530 UniProt 1530-1545 tea break 1545-1630 Uniprot Day2 1000-1045 InterPro 1045-1100 Coffee/tea 1100-1200 InterPro 1200-1300 Lunch 1300-1500 Intact 1500-1515 tea break 1515-1630 Reactome
Prerequisites and objectives: This course is intended for both experimental biologists and computational scientists. Participants will be assumed to have a basic understanding of biology but will not need to be computer scientists. The prime objective of the course is to convey an appreciation of the range and capabilities of the protein related services made available at the EBI
None of our current courses requires you to bring your own computer. However, if you want to bring a laptop and have it online we can arrange access via the University Lapwing wireless service.
