Structural Biology 2017 mainly emphasizes on methods such as X-ray diffraction, NMR, electron microscopy, computational approaches, cell signalling and cancer research. 

Track-1 3D Structure Determination

Biomolecules are very small to see in detail even by most cutting-edge light microscopes. The methods that the structural biologists use to determine their structures in general involve the measurements on huge numbers of identical molecules at the same time. Some of the best methods include X-ray crystallography, Cryo-Electron Microscopy and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance. Very often scientists use them to study the "native states" of biomolecules.

Track-2 Computational Approaches in Structural Biology

Computational approaches are a boon for structural biology. In general the structure of molecules is determined by experimental methods is both time intense and cost effective. To overcome these constraints, computational approaches like ab-initio modelling, homology modeling and threading method are used.

Track-3 Hybrid Approaches for Structure Prediction

Structural bioinformatics is an exceptionally cost effective solution for protein structure determination. Purely computational prediction methods, like ab initio fragment assembly, advanced fold recognition, composite approaches, and molecular docking are regularly applied today to extend our understanding of protein structures. However, predicted structures are not given the same reliance as their experimental complements. Hybrid approaches are a means to overcome these limitations; by incorporating limited experimental measurements, reliable structures can be computed and unlikely predictions eliminated. Hybrid approaches take advantage of data derived from a wide range of different biophysical and biochemical methods. These methods are of growing interest in current researches of structural biology.

Track-5 Structural Biology Databases

A database is a structured collection of data. In the field of structural biology enormous research is being done and as a result massive data is being produced. In order to pile the data in an organized manner, bioinformatics databases are used. Various databases have been created to store biological data, such as sequence databases, structure databases, signalling pathway databases, etc. In the field of structural biology, the mainly used databases are Protein Data Bank (PDB), Electron Microscopy Data Bank, Protein Structure Classification Database (CATH) and Structural Classification of Protein (SCOP).

Track-6 Signalling Biology

Regulation of gene expression comprises a comprehensive range of mechanisms that are used by cells to regulate the production of specific gene products, and is familiarly termed as gene regulation. Sophisticated programs of gene expression are extensively observed in biology, for example to trigger developmental pathways, adapt to new food sources, or respond to environmental stimuli. Essentially any step of gene expression can be modulated, from transcription initiation to post translation modification of a protein.

Track-7 Molecular Modelling and Dynamics

Molecular modelling and simulation embraces all the hypothetical methods and computational procedures used to mimic the behaviour of macromolecules. These techniques are used in diverse fields of drug design, computational chemistry, materials science and computational biology for studying macromolecular systems ranging from small to large biological systems. Simplest calculations can be achieved by hand, but certainly computers are essential to perform molecular modelling of reasonably sized system. Molecular simulation on the other hand uses powerful computers to simulate the interactions between atoms and to understand the properties of materials. Such simulations involve methods that range from very detailed quantum mechanical calculations on atoms to coarse-grained classical dynamics of large groups of molecules on a timescale of milliseconds or longer.

Track-8 Drug Designing

Drug design is also referred as rational drug design. It is an inventive process to find new medication centred on the knowledge of biological target. Drug is most commonly a small molecule that inhibits or activates the function of a biomolecule, which in turn outcomes in a therapeutic benefit to the patient. Drug design commonly but not essentially relies on computational techniques. This type of modelling is often mentioned to as computer-aided drug design. Drug design that depends on the knowledge of the 3D structure of the target is known as structure-based drug design. The main methods available for drug design are structure based drug design and ligand based drug design.

Track-9 Frontiers in Structural Biology

The main focus of a structural biologist is protein structure determination and drug design. Protein plays an important role in human body. Living things would not exist without proteins. Proteins are involved in all aspects of living things. Several proteins provide structure to cells; others tend bind to and carry vital molecules all through the body. Some proteins are involved in biochemical reactions in the body which are termed as enzymes. Others are involved in muscle contractions and immunity. Structure determination of proteins has always been a challenging filed. The complex areas in the field include viruses, pathogens, membrane proteins and signalling pathways. Novel progressions are being done in the arenas of nanopatternig and multi scale modelling of cell signalling proteins.

Track-11 Structural Biology Complexity Arenas

Structural biology aims at understanding biomolecules at atomic level. All most all aspects in structural biology research seem to be complex. Researchers have been proven to be successful in solving many of the complexities like determination of protein structures, functional annotations and drug designing. Though structures of proteins are solved on a huge scale, the gap between available sequence data and structure data is enormous. Bridging this gap is one of the main challenges. In the current research, some of the most complex areas are protein folding, catching the complication of dynamic nanomachines and signalling networks, understanding the intrinsically disordered proteins.
