Dear all,
I am posting an advertisement for a tenure-track group leader position for
structural biology on membrane proteins on behalf of Prof. Dr. Robert Tampé,

Please reply to mailto:applicat...@biochem.uni-frankfurt.de
Well - we ought to be! There is an awful lot of unpredictable slog
goes on before we have the fun!

Let me pick up Eleanor’s comment:

I think as a “crystallographer” you won’t be able to survive the next decade,
you need to diversify your toolset of techniques as pointed out in this article
For some simulated phasing experiments, I want to create a lower resolution
diffraction data set by truncating a high resolution data set. I would like to
avoid Fourier ripples due to the truncation of the high resolution data by
downscaling the data such that I/sigma=2.0 in the highest
Dear CC4BBers,
I am trying to figure out what is the best way to determine the protein
concentration of my membrane protein. My purified membrane protein is in
20mM Tris pH 7, 150mM NaCl and 0.02% DDM (CMC of DDM=0.0076%).
After reading the friendly manuals and searching online, I've learned

One comment (not a complaint) on all this: it seems like the same questions
get asked over and over again. If there is a good place for a general
crystallography FAQ list it is well past time for one to be put together -
or maybe it just needs to be better advertised? At a minimum, for instance:
I think you are talking about the R of the reflections in an image to the set
of unique reflections resulting from scaling.
Here is a definition of Rmerge from a dtscaleaverage log file:
In the tables below Rmerge is defined as:
Rmerge = Sum Sum |Ihi - Ih| / Sum Sum Ih

By applying a high temperature factor, one should not suffer Fourier ripples,
since the missing high resolution reflections have negligible intensities, or
put differently, one simulates a poorly diffracting crystal.

While I agree with your list, the BCA assay does not use molybdate (as we make
it from scratch with bicinchoninic acid, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate,
sodium tartrate, and cupric sulfate pentahydrate). For membrane proteins, I
prefer the BCA assay until the protein is pure

could you elaborate how something like Quora (what is it) would save you

Hi Bingfa,
first suggestion would be to process your data with the anomalous flag turned
on - just in case you happen to have some metal bound coincidentally and you
happen to have collected at a decent wavelength to pickup some anomalous
scattering. ~30% of proteins in the PDB have a metal
