A Pilot Study in Genomic-Scale Structural Analysis Welcome to the Pyrobaculum aerophilum proteomics webpage. The original work on the genome of the bacterium was done by Sorel Fitz-Gibbon at UCLA and Caltech. On this website we want to give a short overview of the project, give some general hints on how to perform the experiments involved in the structure determination and provide a few links to webpages with further information on the bacterium and the project. Some general thoughts about proteins and DNA in thermophiles can be found here . Information on the bacterium and a listing of open reading frames with putative functions can be found at the orphaned Caltech PA page .
Instructions are available, server being implemented.
For further information on the project, please contact Bernhard Rupp .
