588 Protein Structure, Function, and Stability II

Wednesday, November 19, 2014: 3:15 PM
205 (Hilton Atlanta)
Description:
We invite submissions pertaining to protein structure, function, and stability. Studies that utilize experimental or computational approaches are welcome, which may include structural or functional analysis, engineering of new proteins by structure-based design, effects of post-translational modifications, and analysis of protein conformational stability among other topics. Submissions that focus on the mechanisms of protein folding, misfolding, and post-translational modifications are particularly welcome.
