Virologists-
I am a graduate student at the Universtiy of Pennsylvania and I
am looking for a good thesis project. I have a strong background
in microbiology, biochemisrty, and computational chemistry. My
main interest is in protein structure and function.
I would be particularly interested in working on a viral
protein. If you have a protein that meets the following
conditions or any suggestions that might help, please reply via
E-mail. Thank you.
The protein must be fully characterized (cloned and sequenced).
The protein must able to be purified in milligram quantities.
Wild type protein is best, though a recombinant source may be OK.
I do have experience in purifying proteins and will be happy to
make my own protein preps, if a good purfication scheme is
available.
Let me know what you've got! and I look foward to a fruitful
collaboration.
