Dear CCP4BBers, Announcing the 2nd EMBO Practical Course on High throughput Protein Production and Crystallization
June 20-28th 2007, Oxford Protein Production Facility, Oxford. The aim of this course will be to review the state-of-the-art of high-throughput (HTP) protein production and crystallization methods in structural biology with an emphasis on using these methods to study complex and 'difficult' targets and their rescue. Practical training will be provided in HTP methods for cloning, protein expression screening using both E. coli and eukaryotic systems, protein purification and crystallization. Participants will be able to apply the high-throughput protein production and crystallization methods to their own protein target(s) with the option of entering their target(s) into the process at various stages. The deadline for applications is 1st May 2007. Please go to http://cwp.embo.org/pc07-08/index.html for details of how to apply.
