And X-PLOR can also do it, as a part of the energy term to enable direct refinement of protein structures against observed proton shifts that I wrote. Williamson's methods are very similar to Case's. The implementation in X-PLOR happens to follow Williamson's. -- _____________ | ___/_ | |/ / -- /\ // /-- || || / /|| || || / / || || ||/ / || John Kuszewski || |/ /| || johnk@spasm.niddk.nih.gov || / /|| || \/ / / || \/ that's MISTER protein G to you! |/__/| | /_________| My parents went to Zaire and all I got was this lousy retrovirus.

The biomolecular NMR research activities in this interfacultary NMR department involve the study of chitin binding proteins and their interactions with model oligomer carbohydrates, slectively enriched in 13C. On the short term, the HNMR centre is also initiating multinuclear NMR studies on 15N and 13C/15N labelled proteins including antibodies and proteins involved in bacterial resistance against heavy metals. The instrumentation of the HNMR centre consists of a three channel Bruker AMX 500 MHz spectrometer, fully equipped for biomolecular NMR applications, including B0 gradients, digital lock, and all necessary probes. A DRX 250 MHz with the same facilities is forthcoming. The HNMR centre is closely collaborating with the Ultrastructure department (Prof. Dr. L. Wyns) of the Institute of Molecular Biology of the VUB, which houses X-ray diffraction, calorimetric and CD spectroscopy facilities, allowing optimal structural and physicochemical characterisation of the systems of interest. The successfull applicant will have obtained a Ph.D relevant to the field of biomolecular NMR. Applications should be sent to Dr. Jos=E9 C. Martins at the following address: HNMR centre, Room 9621, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Pleinlaan 2, B-1050 Brussel, Belgium.

The candidate should have a Ph.D.in Biochemistry or Biophysics, with previous experience in experimental and theoretical aspects of two-dimensional NMR. Ph.D in Chemistry or Physics would be acceptable if some background knowledge and interest in biological chemistry exists. Experience in protein NMR would be valuable but not necessary. Besides NMR the candidate would also be involved in using other spectral tools (CD, fluorescence, etc.) to characterize peptide/protein conformation in a lipid milieu.

We were looking into changing the Aspect 3000 and the d drive at that time. I had several helpful answers, thanks for that. We are pretty sure, now, the Aspect is ok. So we focused on the d drive. A company, Arraid, claims they can replace virtually every SMD disk drive and that their d drive emulates the original drive's interface and doesnt require ANY changes on the software or controller. Sounds too good to be true! Has anyone ever dealt with that company and that d drive? Any answer/comment appreciated. Regards, Pierre.

Die multidimensionale NMR-Spektroskopie ist die einzig existierende physikalische Methode, die dreidimensionale Struktur von biologischen Makromolek=FClen in L=F6sung mit atomarer Aufl=F6sung zu bestimmen. Sie s= tellt eine theoretisch und instrumentell anspruchsvolle Methodik dar, deren Entwicklung immer noch nicht abgeschlossen ist. Im Rahmen der Doktorarbeit soll auf der einen Seite ein biologisch relevantes Protein untersucht werden, auf der anderen Seite methodische Entwicklungen vorangetrieben werden. Das Ran-Protein geh=F6rt zur Familie der kleinen G-Proteine (Biologie in unserer Zeit (1995), Nr. 1, S. 44 ff.). Kleine G-Proteine sind wichtige Regler f=FCr die Zelle. Wird ein solches Protein besch=E4digt (i.e. mutiert), kann Krebs entstehen. Das Ran-Protein ist im Zellkern lokalisiert. Um in den Zellkern zu gelangen, wird es durch nukleare Poren in den Kern eingeschleust. Ein wesentlicher Bestandteil dieser nuklearen Poren ist das RanBP2-Protein. Um den Mechanismus des Transportes von Ran in den Zellkern zu verstehen, ist es notwendig, die Strukturen der Teile von RanBP2 herauszufinden, die mit dem Zielprotein Ran wechselwirken.
