Introduction to Protein Structure Analysishttps://elearning.bits.vib.be/courses/protein-structure-analysis/http://tess.elixir-uk.org/materials/introduction-to-protein-structure-analysisThis training session will provide the basics of protein structure determination and how this information is stored in databases. We will explore and search in online databases containing protein structure information. With the aid of the Yasara View program we will visualize the structure. Different hands-on exercises will allow you to compare the structure of homologues, to predict a structural model of proteins (without any structure information) and to find homologous structures. We will use online tools to quantify various interactions in the structures.
## Objectives
* Get to know the data generated from protein structure determination experiments (high-resolution NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, electron microscopy, ...) and where to get it.
* Display protein structure data and compare structures, through the use of Yasara.
* Create high-quality graphical representations of the structures.
* Calculate the effect of mutations on the stability of your protein.Alexander BotzkiJoost Van DurmeJanick MathysProtein structure visualisationLife Science Researchers

UNIX Fundamentalshttps://www.mygoblet.org/training-portal/materials/unix-fundamentalshttp://tess.elixir-uk.org/materials/unix-fundamentals-35adf82d-ae32-449d-9627-43b5d18da8ccThis self-learning tutorial aims to present the UNIX environment and to provide the most basic commands to users with no or very little UNIX knowledge.
The examples are taken from various Biological fields but have been chosen carefully to be easily accessible to a wide audience.
At the end of the course, participants are expected to be able to:
Have some understanding on UNIX systems
Navigate through the UNIX filesystem
Execute and understand some UNIX process commands
Correctly set file permissions
Perform basic file management
Participants are encouraged to follow the tutorial sections sequentially.
The tutorial content is sometimes an oversimplification of the Truth - yes, we know!
Due to the diversity of computer systems, we will just assume that participants do have access to a terminal.
