Understanding the principle behind the ET will help to understand the important biological processes like respiration and photosynthesis. The major focus of the talk would be on the type I copper protein, amicyanin which accepts electrons from quinone cofactor of methylamine dehydrogenase and donates them to a c-type cytochrome over long distance. Along with amicyanin, the talk would cover the following: (a) another type I copper protein azurin in complex with quinoprotein aromatic amine dehydrogenase, (b) role of dynamics in crystalline state, analyzed by joint x-ray and neutron study, (c) mutational studies on amicyanin, and (d) charge density/ultra-high-resolution studies on amicyanin which are currently in progress. Several instances where synchrotron crystallography played important role in elucidating catalytic mechanism will be discussed. ================== Vivian Stojanoff, PhD Education, Training, Outreach User Program p 1(631) 344 8375 e [email protected] w https://www.bnl.gov/ps/lifesciences/<https://www.bnl.gov/ps/lsbr/> Address: Center for Biomolecular Structure National Synchrotron Light Source II Building 745 Brookhaven National Laboratory Upton NY 11973 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
