Welcome back! After a brief hiatus, the Structural Biology and Biophysics Interest Group will resume at 12:00 PM this Friday, January 11, 2013. We're meeting in the chemistry conference room, Hand Lab 1135.
The first speaker will be Charles Nettles (Zhang Lab), who will give a talk entitled, "Modification of Protein Fluorescence by Gold Nanoparticles (AuNPs): Inner Filteration, Surface Enhancement, or Fluorescence Quenching." The second speaker is Vu Le (Lewis Lab). He will speak about the influence of the flanking duplex regions on the stability of G-quadruplex conformations.
As always, grad students are encouraged to attend, and don't forget to pack your lunch!
