[ccp4bb] PhD positions in NMR spectroscopy/structural biology of photosynthetic membrane proteins at Leiden University, The Netherlands

Currently, PhD positions are available at Leiden University, Leiden Institute of Chemistry, within the project in shape for photoregulation: molecular plasticity in photosynthesis financed by a VIDI grant of the Netherlands Organization of Scientific Research. *Job description* The

[ccp4bb] ACA 2014 meeting--Session on engaging students in protein crystallography

I am co-organizing (with Kraig Wheeler) a session at the 2014 American Crystallographic Association Meeting in Albuquerque, NM concerned with engaging undergraduate students in protein crystallography. I would like to encourage anyone who has involved undergraduate students in protein

[ccp4bb] refining nucleic acids with Coot

Dear all, I am trying to refine an oligonucleotide chain in Coot and I get the following message when I try: Fail to match (to the dictionary) the following model atom names: G O5* C5* O4* etc That would cause exploding atoms so the refinement did not start Does anyone know how to solve

Re: [ccp4bb] ACA 2014 meeting--Session on engaging students in protein crystallography

Hi Roger, We have a simple lysozyme project where we collect diffraction images in less than 30 seconds total exposure time and solve the structure by SAD phasing. I've thought that this might make an ideal lab practical: grow crystals one week, everyone collects the data on their own crystal

[ccp4bb] Circular Dichoism 280nm range signal

Dear all, Sorry for the off topic. We are comparing the high order structure between Fc engineered mAbs using CD methods. There are some different (noise ?) signal in the 280nm range each antibodies. Other region is almost close match with respect of peak shape and theta value. Is there any
