PNNL will create and operate the Pacific Northwest Center for Cryo-EM (PNCC), a state-of-the-art national center for cryo-electron microscopy (Cryo-EM) that will rapidly and efficiently collect and…

Structure determination of non-coding RNAs

Lead Institution
University of California, San Diego
Principal Investigator
Navtej Toor
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNA) play many diverse but essential roles in biology. Among the first characterized ncRNAs are transfer RNAs, ribosomal RNAs, and the spliceosomal RNAs. Later on, researchers…

Structure of a Bacterial DNA Phosphorothioation Complex

Lead Institution
University of California, San Diego
Principal Investigator
Navtej Toor
Phosphorothioation is a DNA modification that replaces a phosphate oxygen atom with a sulfur in the DNA backbone. It is a common artificial DNA modification in synthesized oligonucleotides, because…
