The Brohawn lab at UC Berkeley, Department of Molecular and Cell Biology and
Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute, seeks an outstanding postdoctoral scientist
with a strong background in structural biology to join our team.
We study cellular electrical excitability and sensory transduction
The Molecular Sciences Group at Astex Pharmaceuticals integrates multiple
structural & biophysical techniques for fragment based drug discovery (FBDD).
The group is currently expanding these approaches to include single particle

Thanks for the help all,
I ended up using Protopedia for the list of Nobel Prizes but I really like
the Oxygen We Breathe tutorial and I've bookmarked it for future use.
In the end I had them read Ed Yong's article in The Atlantic about the
inevitable evolution of bad science. We talked about
In my feeling, lowering the occ explains much more such unordered loops (or
solvent exposed sidechains..).
B-factors are a measure of uncertainty of the atom position xyz: Letting
B-factors fly is like broadening a distribution to an extent where the
expectation value looses its purpose. That
Dear Carlos and Phoebe,
the B-value describes the movement of an atom at first order approximation,
i.e. as a harmonic motion. It's very unlikely that an atom that is not visible
in density, discribes a harmonic motion.
It never occurred to me, but modelling disorder by strong B-factor
Even that occupancy refinement seems to be very interesting for
crystallographers, I complete agree with Phoebe.

Interesting way to look at it. But those loop residues are really in
the crystal with an occupancy of 1, so wouldn't letting the B factor

case this is of use to others):
