Klinke, Sebastián; Rinaldi, Jimena; Goldbaum, Fernando A.; Suarez, Sebastián; Otero, Lisandro H. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2019
X-ray crystallography provides structural information of molecules at the atomic level, being a central technique at the forefront of science and technology. However, crystallography teaching is not usually implemented in biochemistry lab classes due to its complex execution by nonexpert users. Here, we report the basic step-by-step workflow…

Bender, David A. – Biochemical Education, 1986
Describes how a computer simulation is used with a laboratory experiment on the synthesis of urea in isolated hepatocytes. The simulation calculates the amount of urea formed and the amount of ammonium remaining as the concentrations of ornithine, citrulline, argininosuccinate, arginine, and aspartate are altered. (JN)

Brittain, T. – Biochemical Education, 1986
Describes an experiment which allows students to identify the nature of the time-course for chymotrypsin and to obtain mechanistic information on the two kinetic phases in terms of their concentration dependence. Also describes the computer simulation (available from the author) used in the experiment. (JN)

Schmidt, Thomas G.; Place, Allen R. – Physiologist, 1985
Modeled after the program "Mastermind," this program teaches students the art of protein sequencing. The program (written in Turbo Pascal for the IBM PC, requiring 128K, a graphics adapter, and an 8070 mathematics coprocessor) generates a polypeptide whose sequence and length can be user-defined (for practice) or computer-generated (for…
