Protein Purification Simulation
No full textThe Protein Purification Lab is a interactive computer simulation of protein purification. This program is extremely helpful for beginners in the art of protein purification. It gives students a chance to get beyond the details of individual techniques and get a sense of the overall process of a protein purification strategy. Users try their hand at purifying a particular enzyme (1-20) while balancing purity, yield and cost. "Protein Lab" demonstrates that there are some general guidelines in the selection of techniques for protein purification but that each protein has unique characteristics that can be exploited in order to isolate a particular enzyme. Users may download the interactive computer program for free on this website, or use an online version of the tutorial exercises

Andrew D. Booth – Britain’s Other “Fourth Man”
No full textInternational audienceAndrew Donald Booth (1918-2009) was the leader of a team of computer pioneers at Birkbeck College in the University of London, UK. Booth worked with limited resources, both human and financial, and concentrated on building smaller machines. This paper presents an outline of his career in the UK which, the author believes, has not received the attention it deserves in comparison to a number of his UK contemporaries

Ki-67 is a PP1-interacting protein that organises the mitotic chromosome periphery
No full textCopyright @ 2014 Booth et al. This article is distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use and redistribution provided that the original author and source are credited.When the nucleolus disassembles during open mitosis, many nucleolar proteins and RNAs associate with chromosomes, establishing a perichromosomal compartment coating the chromosome periphery. At present nothing is known about the function of this poorly characterised compartment. In this study, we report that the nucleolar protein Ki-67 is required for the assembly of the perichromosomal compartment in human cells. Ki-67 is a cell-cycle regulated protein phosphatase 1-binding protein that is involved in phospho-regulation of the nucleolar protein B23/nucleophosmin. Following siRNA depletion of Ki-67, NIFK, B23, nucleolin, and four novel chromosome periphery proteins all fail to associate with the periphery of human chromosomes. Correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) images suggest a near-complete loss of the entire perichromosomal compartment. Mitotic chromosome condensation and intrinsic structure appear normal in the absence of the perichromosomal compartment but significant differences in nucleolar reassembly and nuclear organisation are observed in post-mitotic cells
