2007
- 12/18/2007: Farewell to Susanta, who has completed a successful postdoctoral research in our group. Susanta will venture into a new direction in single-molecule research at NIH. We wish him the best for his future pursuit. To carry on our ever-increasing research activities, two new postdoctoral researchers will join us in January 2008.
- 12/05/2007: New grant from Wilson Disease Association to support our single-molecule studies of the Wilson Disease Protein.
- 12/03/2007: Jaime and Aaron have submitted their work on probing transient interactions between the copper chaperone Hah1 and Wilson Disease protein. Congratulations!
- 11/27/2007: Congratulations to Aaron, who has been selected for a Molecular Biophysics Traineeship!
- 09/20/2007: Susanta and Nesha's paper on PbrR691-engineered HJ interaction has appeared in JACS ASAP!
- 09/18/2007: Weilin and Jason have submitted their work on single nanoparticle catalysis at single-turnover resolution. Congratulations!
- 09/15/2007: We're working on another new version of the website. Please bear with us as everything slowly gets replaced from our old version to the new version.
- 08/2007: Peng and Nesha's review on single-molecule fluorescence studies of bioinorganic systems has been accepted by Inorg. Chim. Acta.!
- 08/2007: Susanta and Nesha's paper on probing metalloregulator-DNA interactions using engineered Holliday junctions has been accepted by J. Am. Chem. Soc. Congratulations!
- 06/2007: Peng and Nesha submitted a short review discussing single-molecule fluorescence studies and possible further applications related to bioinorganic chemistry.
- 05/2007: Jaime was selected again for a NIH Molecular Biophysics Traineeship.
- 03/2007: Susanta and Nesha submitted their work of engineering DNA Holliday junctions as general single-molecule reporters to probe protein-DNA interactions. They applied this novel method to study how a MerR-family metalloregulator interacts with DNA for transcriptional regulation.
- 02/2007: In recognition of our innovative and significant research in Single-Molecule Bioinorganic Chemistry, Peng Chen was awarded a 2007 NSF Career Award. Congratulations to Peng! Congratulations to Nesha and Jaime, who have made significant contributions to the work described in the winning proposal.
