Special Research Project.pdf: instructions for the project you will do at the end of November. A mass spectrometry project will be added to this list, the details of which are still be worked out.
Project Deadline: by Oct. 29 ALL groups must inform Dr. H what project they will do during the week of Nov. 17 - 19. There will be limitations to how many groups can do each experiment, therefore the projects are first come, first served!
REINCARNATION: a comical and metaphysical observation with a Western flair.
Molecular Graphics Gallery is now up and running. The grading Rubric and Score Sheet can be downloaded from this page.
Molecular Graphics Project information has been moved.
Molecular Graphics Important Dates and Deadlines:
- Sept. 14, 15, and 16 in BSW 243 (computer lab) from 6 pm to 8 pm: Workshops for initial instruction on Jmol and developing a Jmol webpage: The same material will be covered in each of these workshops, so only attend one due to limited seating. A sign up sheet will be provided in class.
- By Oct. 2: meet with Dr. H to decide what protein will be subject of Jmol webpage.
- By Oct. 16: meet with Dr. H to show progress on Jmol script development.
- Nov. 6: all Jmol webpages, scripts, and jpegs must be submitted to Dr. H.
- Nov. 9: Jmol gallery will be created on course website.
- Dec. 4: submit grades for class mates Jmol webpages to Dr. H as a group.
As you can see, you will need to begin working on this project right away, do not put it off!
For those looking a laboratory in which you can do your Senior Thesis project, check out these two resources:
Olivia Mendoza sent out an email about a central information portal for undergrads looking for research labs:
http://www.ur.arizona.edu
For more assistance Prof. Marc Tischler has put
the following information together:
http://www.biochem.arizona.edu/dept/dgre/res_advice.html
Examine these two sources of information, let me know if you
need more information. A word to the wise, THIS IS NOT AN EASY
PROCESS, BETTER TO START NOW!!!!!!!!
Rooms and Times
- Section 1: Shantz 242E @ 8 am for lecture
- Section 2: Forbes 206@ 1 pm for lecture
- Sections 1 & 2: Koffler 540 after lecture.

Tuesday, Nov. 17 and Thursday, Nov. 19 Special Research Project
Morning class meet in Koffler 540 at 8 am
Afternoon class meet in Koffler 540 at 1 pm
The first thing we need to do is determine the appropriate concentration of BME or TCEP (CD expts) to render AP catalytically inactive.
We also must determine the best buffer to do the CD, fluorescence, activity assays which involve taking the enzyme up to 85 C and rapidly bringing it back to room temp.
Mass Spec people, my apologies but we will not be able to begin dialyzing your protein until Tuesday due to unforeseen problems with receiving the AMBIC and DTT and some personal issues. Please make sure you have spoken with Linda Breci so we can figure out what we need to do for both the MALDI-TOF and Tandem expt.
General tips for composing ones thoughts prior to writing your lab report can be found at Lab_Report.pdf. Detailed information for what is to be included in the first lab report can be found at the end of the Protocol along with supplimental questions that will also be turned in.
A
general guide for scientific writing can be obtained at :
BMB_Sci_Writing.pdf.
For subsequent lab reports, "Instructions to Authors" for the journal Biochemistry will be handed out and rigorously adhered to when writing your "manuscripts".
