[ccp4bb] OT: design of a stable alpha-helical peptide

Hi everyone, Sorry for the off-topic question, but I thought I may get some advice/pointers about the design of a stable alpha-helical peptide. I would like to obtain a peptide mimicking a 13-residue alpha-helix that was identified in a protein to mediate a protein-protein interaction, which is co

Re: [ccp4bb] OT: design of a stable alpha-helical peptide

Hi Erik, A couple of things to consider: 1. Begin the N-terminus from helix "initiating" residues (i.e. one residue overhang might not be sufficient) 2. If not done already, add the 6-carboxy-fluorescein moiety at C-terminus of the peptide Good Luck, Partha On Wed, Mar 20, 2024 at 6:03 AM Erik Deb

[ccp4bb] PDRA and Beamline Scientist positions with the XFEL Hub at Diamond Light Source

Hi, The XFEL Hub at Diamond Light Source in Oxfordshire UK, has two positions open: 1) Postdoctoral Research Associate (PDRA, up to three years duration) and 2) Beamline Scientist (Full time / Permanent). Both will address time-resolved, dynamic structural biology. We are eager to work with you
