Collaborative Access Team: Pacific Northwest Cryo-EM Center (PNCC)

Lead Institution
Environmental Molecular Sciences Laboratory
Principal Investigator
James Evans
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 and function of the gap junctions

Lead Institution
Portland State University
Principal Investigator
Steve Reichow
The gap junctions are a class of membrane channel proteins that form direct pathways for cell-to-cell communication. Dynamic mechanisms of channel gating are required to control these communication…

Structure, function and aggregation of the lens alpha-crystallins

Lead Institution
Portland State University
Principal Investigator
Steve Reichow
We are applying emerging methods in single particle CryoEM to advance our understanding the molecular mechanisms leading to cataract formation (the leading cause of blindness in the world). The focus…
