Bazer , Gershon , Gimble , Kan , Martin , McKeehan , McQuillan , Potaman , and Wells . Molecular models aid experimental determination of specificity of the FGF receptor. The lectures were presented on September 17 and 18, 1998. Dr. Bazer had a paper in the October issue of Biology of Reproduction that indicates the effect of interferon tau on secretion of an antiviral protein by the uterus which may help to protect the embryo from adverse effects of viruses and may also influence the mechanisms for uterine epithelial cells to secrete proteins which support development of the embryo.

This mini-review discusses recent advances in protein engineering that utilize the protein splicing chemistry. The new techniques enable researchers to introduce unnatural amino acids, modified amino acids, or detection probes into recombinant target proteins at defined locations.
