2008 American Crystallographic Association Meeting
01.04 Structural Enzymology
Tuesday afternoon, June 3, 2008
Organized by Drs. Allen M. Orville and Carrie M. Wilmot
The abstract deadline for the 2008 ACA meeting in Knoxville, TN, including our Structural Enzymology session, was extended to Jan 12, 2008 (this Saturday). If you have not submitted your abstract, then please submit it to the ACA web site by the deadline. This will help greatly with the accelerated schedule required to prepare the meeting materials.
Our session will feature talks and posters that describe crystal structures of reactive intermediates, and/or which use techniques that provide strong correlation(s) to the proposed reaction mechanism. The speakers will describe methods and structures of macromolecular catalysts that are poised, trapped or stalled along the reaction coordinate, rather than ground-state structures of resting systems that are more typical of macromolecular crystal structures. These studies tend to provide a more detailed, insightful, and complete picture of the particular reaction mechanism.
Our session code is: 01.04 Structural Enzymology
The guidelines for the abstracts can be found by following the links from:
http://neutrons.ornl.gov/conf/aca2008/abstracts.shtml
Briefly, some of the important metrics are:
The entire abstract, including title, authors and their affiliations, footnotes, references, tables, equations, etc., should be a maximum of 2000 characters (including spaces) using Times font with 10 point size.
One image per abstract is allowed, and it must be black & white and must fit into area no larger than 1.5 high x 3.5 wide.
Sincerely,
AMO & CMW
