Re: [ccp4bb] protein structure for high schoolers

2012-01-20 Thread Yoder, Marilyn
Hi, I've given a couple talks/demos to HS students. As much as I love enzymes, I found it more effective to show structures of proteins binding to other biological molecules (not just other proteins). I typically show phosphatidylinositol binding protein (PITP) bound to phosphatidylcholine,

Re: [ccp4bb] Using chaperones to boost expression in E. coli

2011-04-22 Thread Yoder, Marilyn
My collaborator was successful in purifying soluble rat phosphatidylinositol transfer protein in E. coli when overexpressing GroEL/ES. They estimated ~50% of the protein became soluble. We were able to solve the structure from protein purified using this expression construct. We did not expe

Hi all, We are preparing to replace a cryosystem on our home rotating anode. Does anyone have any insight into a comparison of the Oxford Cobra system and the Rigaku X-treme? Many thanks, Marilyn Yoder Marilyn D. Yoder Division of Cell Biology & Biophysics School of Biological Scie

[ccp4bb] COOT: adding xylose to a plant glycosylation chain

2018-07-05 Thread Yoder, Marilyn
Hello, I'm having problems adding XYP (beta-xylose) to my glycosylation chain in a plant protein. I have a 1.87 Angstrom map, 4 molecules in the asymmetric unit. I have two primary N-glycosylation sites, per protein. I am not using NCS for refinement or model building. The density for the NA
