Dear All, We need to ship small amounts (< 100ul, [ ] < 5mM) of heavy atom (HA) solutions to a synchrotron for onsite HA soaking. Fedex is able to do so but is asking for the corresponding UN numbers. All the HAs are from Hampton Research kit. We have found the UN number for three HA but we c

Hey Josiah, if you're into self-flagellation, try RosettaDock (http://www.rosettacommons.org/software/). The program is viciously obfuscated and the learning curve correspondingly steep, but once you've figured things out, it's quite powerful. Take the published protocols with a grain of sa
