Re: [ccp4bb] convert loop into a sheet

2021-08-12 Thread Jon Cooper
Hello, do you start with a loop and coot/refmac give you back a loop or do you 
start with a strand and get a loop back? Which fits the density best and how 
good is the initial fit? Are there any extra restraints which always make it 
loop back on itself when it shouldn't ;-?

Cheers, Jon.C.

[ccp4bb] A post-doctoral Research Associate immediately available in Michigan State University

2021-08-12 Thread Hu, Jian
Position Summary
The Department of Microbiology and Molecular Genetics is seeking a 
post-doctoral Research Associate. The position involves enzyme biochemical 
characterizations and structure analyses in the laboratory of Dr. Robert 
Hausinger working in collaboration with Dr. Jian Hu.
This position is available immediately for a highly self-motivated Research 
Associate with experience in molecular biology, protein biochemistry, and 
structure biology.  The position is associated with an NIH-funded project to 
characterize enzymes that synthesize and use the recently discovered 
nickel-pincer nucleotide cofactor.
We seek an excellent scientist with hands-on training in molecular biology, 
protein expression/purification, and, ideally, structure determination by x-ray 
crystallography.
This is a full-time, 12-month fixed-term position with reappointment contingent 
on satisfactory performance and available funding.
Equal Employment Opportunity Statement
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without 
regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, 
national origin, citizenship, disability or protected veteran status.
Minimum Requirements
Applicants should have a Ph.D. in biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology 
or other field closely related to protein structure and enzyme characterization.
Desired Qualifications
The successful applicant will have demonstrated skills in molecular biology and 
protein purification. Experience in structure characterization is highly 
preferred.
Required Application Materials
Interested applicants should search for posting #722092 at careers.msu.edu to 
submit a statement describing relevant skills, research accomplishments, 
research interests, a current CV, and contact information for three references.
Review of Applications Begins On
