Photographs and summer exhibit

Filed under: BB399H @ 3:28 pm

I have taken photos of everyone’s work of art.  You’ll find those posted here by summer’s end.  But if you are really dying to renew that special bond with your protein, you can find most of the artworks on display this summer in the Crips reading room in the Biochemistry Department (second floor ALS building).

Oh, and Min… I have something to tell you.  Your ubiquitin model was too realistic.  I set it up in the reading room as it was supposed to be positioned, in an office trash can.  It was a thing of beauty.  But then I discovered a week later that the custodian had thrown it away!  I imagine it is now in the landfill, diffusing around until it collides with a proteasome. :)

Ubiquitin. Bon voyage.
