• Dont look for "the" structure

  
  Discount thoughts — Authority: 113
  It surprises me how often I hear students, postdocs, and even professors talk about determining the structure of a protein. A singular structure has the advantage of being relatively easy to interpret, but the cost of this is often the loss of functional data. Its easy to understand how this terminology emerges from ...

• Photosynthesis, phages and structures: there’s treasure everywhere!

  
  Byte Size Biology — Authority: 480
  Here’s a really cool work, published this September in Nature.. Why did I choose this work?  Well, it’s a major discovery, and it’s all done using bioinformatics, and fairly simple bioinformatics at that. The power of metagenomics and bioinfromatics: in a mass of data you just have to know what you are looking ...

• On Mimicking Phosphotyrosine

  
  The Scientific Activist — Authority: 469
  When doing science, theres generally one totally optimal way of performing an experiment. But, there may also be several other less optimal means of gathering similar data, and one of those may be much more feasible than the totally optimal method. As a scientist, you have to determine whether this other method is ...

• Warren DeLano

  
  Byte Size Biology — Authority: 480
  For those who are not in the structural biology community: Warren DeLano wrote and maintained PyMol , the software of choice for molecular visualization. Practically anyone who published anything requiring a biomolecular image used PyMol. It is a great piece of software, powerful and extensible. Warren was strongly ...

  Science nature & education - science-nature.marc8.com — Authority: 156
  (DOE/SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory) The first experiments are now underway using the worlds most powerful X-ray laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source, located at the Department of Energys SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. Illuminating objects and processes at unprecedented speed and scale, the LCLS has ...

• The role of dynamics in catalysis

  
  Discount thoughts — Authority: 113
  For some enzymes, dynamics on the millisecond timescale play a critical role in catalysis. I dont think this is a particularly controversial or unclear statement, but then, I know what I mean by it. In the process of communication, however, the intended meaning sometimes gets lost or transformed. A statement that ...
