Science Degree Program in China - Chemicobiology

1. Introduction

Chemicobiology is the science that studies the chemical basis in the life process. The occurrence and development of the disease is the interference and destruction of the pathogenic factors to the life process. The prevention and cure of the drug is the intervention of the pathological process. Chemicobiology studies life phenomenon and life process through the chemical basis of the chemical theory and method, by exploring intervention and adjustment to illness development mechanism and provides essential theoretical basis for drug discovery.

Chemicobiology takes bioinorganic chemistry, biological analysis of chemical, biological organic chemistry, biochemistry, chemical information science, physics, chemistry and biology and biomimetic polymer materials as the research directions, the directions of development, cultivates specialized personnel with good scientific quality, master the basic theory, basic knowledge and basic skills of chemistry, and receive preliminary training in applied research, technology development, science and technology management.

2. Positive Research Methods

In the positive method, the target biological phenomena are defined for the first time, and then the molecules that cause the phenomenon to be searched are selected from many molecules that are applied. The selected molecules can be attached to certain proteins and inhibit/activate them, causing important modifications, and then the proteins linking to the molecules are examined and studied.

1) Prepared compounds

2) Target phenomenon

3) Target protein

3. Reverse Research Methods

In the reverse method, the target protein is attacked by a chemical substance, which is first classified and then analyzed in vitro function of the target protein by observing the result of the insertion of the relevant chemical.

1) Target protein

2) Development of CDK

3) Purvalanol effect

4) Confirm the bonding

5) Other functions

4. Gene Expression

1) Research methods

2) Positive method research

3) Reverse method research

4) Antisense oligomer

5) RNA intervention
