Wednesday Nite at the Lab

press release: WN@TL goes hybrid both with Zoom and with in-person (Room 1111) presentations. The zoom registration link is still go.wisc.edu/240r59. You can also watch a live web stream at on YouTube.

We welcome meteorological spring on March 1 with Karli Lipinski of Chemistry and Biochemistry and her talk on “Illuminating Protein Function by Imaging Colorful Single Molecules.”  

Fluorescence microscopy has become a tool not only of biologists looking at cells but also of biochemists peering into reactions, and even more remarkably, into individual molecules.   Karli uses single molecule methods to examine steps of spliceosome activation and traditional biochemical techniques to determine post-transcriptional processing of a novel U6 snRNA gene construct transcribed by RNAP II instead of RNAP III.
