Biochemistry/Structural Biology
Interest Group: Journal Clubs

All of the participating departments and many of the individual labs hold weekly journal clubs. Additionally, the Interest Groups offer journal clubs for the first-year and upper level graduate students.

Biological Chemistry and Molecular Biology students select from a range of journal clubs. The Biochemistry / Structural Biology Interest Group offers at least two journal clubs each year.

Recent examples include:

  • Biological Design
  • Intracellular Proteolysis as a Regulatory Mechanism
  • Site Specific Drug Targeting
  • Membrane Channels, Pumps, and Receptors; Insights into Mechanism
    From Recent Structures
  • Proteolysis as a Regulatory Mechanism
  • Protein Targeting
  • Biology and Biochemistry of Cytokines and Their Receptors
  • Macromolecular Machines
  • Chromosome Dynamics
  • Protein/Nucleic Acid Complexes in DNA Replication, Repair, & Expression
  • DNA Repair
  • An Emerging Biosynthetic Pathway
  • Sensory Systems for Nutrition Level and Stress
  • Chromatin and Gene Regulation
  • RNA 98/99
  • HIV and AIDS
