X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY:Taking a Structured Approach to Understanding Proteins

摘要: Knowing the structures of all proteins encoded by flood gene sequences pouring into public databases would give a big boost to biomedical researchers seeking understand those genes' functions, but even if it were possible determine them, take tremendous amount time and resources. Meeting 24 25 January at Argonne National Laboratory outside Chicago, group agreed that goal should be set molecules representing types protein structure. They say this yield almost as good picture universe attempting get three-dimensional structure every one turns up through sequencing, which in case human genome could 100,000.
