Crystallization of Kinesin Family Motor Proteins

Motor proteins of several kinesin family groups have now been crystallized: monomeric Kinesin-1 motor domains from human,rat and Neurospora (Kull et al.,1996; Sack et al.,1997; Song et al.,2001)and dimeric rat Kinesin-1 (two motor domains connected

Early development of primary motor neurons and somites in Zebrafish Embryos

over ten hours from fertilization. About 24 hours after fertilization,the embryo has formed most of its tissue and organ primordia and displays the tadpole like form. This experiment will look at the development of motor neurons in zebrafish

Microwave Processing Techniques for Biological Samples in a Service Laboratory

The author’s interest in microwave (MW) processing of biological samples for electron microscopy was initially stimulated by presentations and papers by Dr. Gary Login (Login and Dvorak, 1988 , Login and Dvorak, 1993 , Login and Dvorak, 1994
