[ccp4bb] Postdoc position at the Institute of Cancer Research, London
Post Doctoral Training Fellow Section of Structural Biology, The Institute of Cancer Research The Institute of Cancer Research (a College of the University of London) is a world-class cancer research organization with HEFCE RAE ratings of international excellence across all of its research programmes. In partnership with The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, we form the largest comprehensive cancer centre in Europe, dedicated to research that extends from epidemiology, genetics and molecular biology, through drug discovery and development, to cancer diagnosis and patient treatment. This makes us uniquely placed to work towards our vision that people may live their lives free from the fear of cancer as a life threatening disease. This Cancer Research UK Development Committee funded position will provide structural biology support for the hit-to-lead development of small molecule inhibitors of a protein kinase. The successful applicant will determine crystal structures of the kinase bound to small molecule inhibitors and contribute to the structure-based design of more potent, more specific inhibitors. The project will be carried out in the laboratory of Dr Richard Bayliss (Structural Biology), in collaboration with chemists at the Institute (Centre for Cancer Therapeutics), and the University of Newcastle. Applicants must hold a PhD, or be close to completing their PhD studies, in biochemistry, molecular biology or structural biology. An ability to independently determine X-ray crystal structures of proteins is essential. Experience in high-throughput crystallography for drug discovery would be considered an asset. The position is offered on a fixed term contract of up to two years in the first instance with a starting salary in the range £26,597 to £29,256 p.a. inclusive. Informal enquires may be made to Dr Richard Bayliss (Tel: +44 (0)20 7153 5557 / Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]). Please DO NOT send your application to Dr Bayliss; CVs must be submitted in line with the instructions below.

Re: [ccp4bb] Installing coot on MacOSX 10.5
An update, in case this is still a burning issue for anybody. The fink package maintainer for Ruby updated the package over the weekend. Coot now builds fine from scratch on 10.4.11. I haven't tested 10.5, but it should also be okay. On 17 Apr 2008, at 20:23, Paul Emsley wrote: The mind boggles as to why you'd need ruby to install Coot... Ruby is a dependency of SWIG (in Fink, at least).

Re: [ccp4bb] pH-ing Jeffamine ED-2001
Hi Amit, Changing the pH of Jeffamine is not so easy . I would keep the pH of Jeffamine constant and rather change the pH of buffer. Anyway if Jeffamine concentration is too low as compare to the buffer you are using, it would not change the final pH much. This is what my experience with Jeffamine is.

I intend to set up an optimization grid around one of the crystallization conditions (containing Jeffamine ED-2001pH 7.0 and HEPES pH 7.0) by varying the buffer pH from 5.5 to 7.5. In such a case, is it recommmended that the pH of Jeffamine ED-2001(pH 7.0) also be changed to match the different buffer pHs(5.5-7.5)? Cheers, Amit -- Yogesh K.

[ccp4bb] hydrodynamic radius from atomic coordinates
Dear colleagues, Does anyone know of a program to calculate hydrodynamic radius of a protein from atomic coordinates? Thanks. Mike Colaneri
[ccp4bb] Kay Diederichs and Novel_R source?
I would like to get a hold of the program Novel_R, the source code for which is supposed to be available on Kay Diederichs' web site. However, the links I have seem to be outdated. Does Diederichs have a new web site, and is the Novel_R source still available?

[ccp4bb] density_modify.inp is not running in cns1.2 but runs in cns1.1
Hi All, I am trying to run density_modify.inp in cns 1.2. it stops with the error enclosed below. But, it runs with cns 1.1 perfectly. I am using the same two data files(e.g. p65_se_rdey.hkl.cv and combine.hkl). Does anyone have experience like this? Any solution is well appreciated. Regards...
