Molecular Structure of Biological Materials (BE.442)

20.442 · Biological Engineering · Graduate · Fall 2005

Prof. Shuguang Zhang

MIT · Tier 1

This course, intended for both graduate and upper level undergraduate students, will focus on understanding of the basic molecular structural principles of biological materials. It will address the molecular structures of various materials of biological origin, such as several types of collagen, silk, spider silk, wool, hair, bones, shells, protein adhesives, GFP, and self-assembling peptides. It will also address molecular design of new biological materials applying the molecular structural pr…
