Academician of AAS&AAE Visits a8体育官网

    At the invitation of Professor Liu Ruinhui of the School of Material Science and Engineering, a8体育官网, Mr. Samuel H. Gellman, Professor of University of Madison, Wisconsin and Academician of American Academy of Science & American Academy of Engineering, paid a visit to a8体育官网 and gave an academic report entitled “Impact of Backbone Modifications on Informational Properties of Polypeptides” on June 5th, 2017.

    In his report, Professor Gellman introduced different types of a8体育官网 folds, indicating that the a8体育官网 folding body exhibited better biophysical properties than the native protein / a8体育官网 while retaining the information recognition function of the native protein / a8体育官网. Professor Gellman also illustrated that due to subtle differences on surface information, α and α/βalpha a8体育官网 would result in a completely different selectivity and specificity in protein recognition.
