Bio-inorganic chemistry |
CHIM-M1-C27-S1 | 4 ECTS |
Niveau : M1
Semestre : S1
Professor : Clotilde Policar
Duration : 32h
Topic
The lecture will present recent advances in bio-inorganic chemistry. Dealing with fundamental thermodynamical and reactivity, key concepts in inorganic chemistry will be discussed on exampkes taken in biological systems in order to better understand how specific physico-chemical properties of metal cations are used by living systems. The lecture will describe endogenous metallic systems, mainly metalloproteins, but also inorganic artifical structures used in biology (as medecine, probes). It will also delineate how chemists can design bio-inspired metallic systems.
