Introduction to DEER Spectroscopy Workshop – 7/31/2017
Jul. 18, 2017—Join us for the Introduction to DEER Spectroscopy Workshop on Monday, July 31, from 9:30am-5:00pm in 419-D Light Hall. Double Electron-Electron Resonance (DEER) is a pulsed EPR technique capable of routinely measuring 20 to 60 Å distance distributions between spin labels, and distances over 100 Å have been measured. DEER is widely applicable in the...

Research Spotlight – Walter Chazin
Jun. 16, 2017—CSB Researcher Watler Chazin, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Fellow Aaron Ehlinger, Ph.D., and colleagues have shown that an ancient primase polymerase – PrimPol – helps replicate DNA from cell to cell where there is a damage to DNA. The study published in Nature Communications, demonstrate that PrimPol is recruited to reprime DNA synthesis through its interaction with...
