The two products that seem to be of most use are described below. From talking to several people that have used them, the consensus seems to be that both are extremely useful and have their own virtues. The small peptide appears to be useful for first learning how to actually do the fancy experiments, because there's no H2O, the sample is simple, and you can do some of the 3d experiments in an afternoon. The labeled ubiquitin is said to be very useful in that it allows you to gain experience doing the experiments on large molecules using a known system. In short, which one you buy depends upon your experience and the problem you are working on. Those that can afford it recommend both. Email me in a month or so if you want more details.

The company that supplies labeled ubiquitin is VLI Research, The Meadows, Suite 116, 485 Devon Park Drive, Wayne, PA 19087, Phone (215) 687-4500, FAX (215) 688-6524. They have both 15N and 15N-13C labeled Ubiquitin. The price for 15N was $2000/10mg and 15N-13C was $7500/mg in 1992 the last time we purchased samples. The quality was quite good, we did not see any impurities by NMR. As far as I know they only have labeled Ubiquitins. I do not know if they are still in business or what the current price is. Our last contact was in the summer of 1992. Cambridge was also supplying a 15N-13C labeled tri-peptide of Gly-Phe-Leu as a 1mM DMSO NMR sample. The cost was about $950. We did not like this sample. We felt that 1mM was too dilute for a setup sample. I hope this helps. Mike -- Michael H. Frey, Manager AI R&D Tel(Operator): (508) 535-5900 U.S. Products, JEOL USA, Inc.

Andrew Byrd Actually the latest timings I have seen show the SG Power Challenges competing very well with a Cray. Timings with Amber molecular dynamics (basically the same algorithm used in Axel Brunger's Xplor) show an SG PC with 2 processors matching C90 speeds. Based on CHARMM timings of Milan Hodoscek, I recently estimated that one could obtain the MD compute power of a 256 processor Cray T3D supercomputer with 2 SG PCs expanded with racks of 16 processors each. So, in my opinion, it currently looks reasonably feasible for a very well-funded lab or dept. to have in-house workstation-based supercomputing for NMR and molecular simulation applications. To browse Milan's full sheet of CHARMM timings (including Dec alpha) the interested browser could catch a wave to: http://www.ki.si/parallel.html Barry Barry J. Hardy, who has never been employed by Cray or SG, and who is giving a personal estimate and opinion.

The exchange rates are one day or more in D2O solvent, phosphate buffer pH 6.0. Is it unusual to see glutamine NH2 with exchange rates this slow? The MW is 16 kDaltons. I don't think they are amide protons. If anyone else has seen these slow exchange rates, what type of structure was the glutamine in? Thanks.

If you have not yet listed yourself in our BIOSCI user directory, please take a few minutes to complete and return the form below. If your personal information has changed since you listed yourself, please send us a complete new updated form. We can not make manual revisions to existing entries. Sincerely, Dave Kristofferson BIOSCI/bionet Manager biosci-help@net.bio.net **** How to cancel a BIOSCI e-mail subscription **** If you want to cancel your e-mail subscription to this group, PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR UNSUBSCRIBE REQUEST TO THE NEWSGROUP ADDRESS (NOR REPLY TO A MESSAGE POSTED TO THE NEWSGROUP)!!! This would send your request to all of the readers of the newsgroup, but it might still not be seen by the BIOSCI staff - thus you would annoy many people and possibly not accomplish your goal anyway. IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN THE AMERICAS OR PACIFIC RIM COUNTRIES, please send a message to biosci@net.bio.net Instructions on how to subscribe/unsubscribe will be returned automatically, so the contents of your message do not matter. IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN EUROPE, AFRICA OR CENTRAL ASIA, please send a message to MXT@dl.ac.uk containing the word help in the body of the message to retrieve e-mail server instructions. Any text placed on the Subject: line of your message will be ignored, so be sure to put the "help" command in the body of the message. If you need personal assistance, a BIOSCI staff member can be contacted at either of the following addresses. Please contact the address designated for your location. Support Address Location --------------- -------- biosci@daresbury.ac.uk Europe, Africa, and Central Asia biosci-help@net.bio.net Americas and the Pacific Rim **** SEARCHING BIOSCI ARCHIVES **** The easiest way to search the BIOSCI archives is to use gopher software and connect over the Internet to net.bio.net, the U.S. BIOSCI computer. We maintain three indexes which are searchable from the main gopher menu on net.bio.net: (1) an index of all BIOSCI postings; (2) an index of individual journal article references from the Table of Contents postings on the BIO-JOURNALS newsgroup; and (3) an index of BIOSCI users including regular mail and e-mail addresses, phone/FAX numbers, research interests, and newsgroup participation. E-mail users can search the BIOSCI archives by using our waismail e-mail server. For instructions send the message help to waismail@net.bio.net. Leave the Subject: line blank (anything entered on the Subject: line is ignored). WAIS software can also be used to search the archives as described in the BIOSCI FAQ (see below). Finally, the BIOSCI archive files are accessible by anonymous FTP to net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in the directory pub/BIOSCI. **** BIOSCI FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) SHEET **** New users of BIOSCI/bionet may want to read the "Frequently Asked Questions" or "FAQ" sheet for BIOSCI. The FAQ provides details on how to participate in these forums and is available for anonymous FTP from net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in pub/BIOSCI/doc/biosci.FAQ or for retrieval by gopher to net.bio.net, port 70. It may also be requested by sending the command info faq in the body of an e-mail message to the Internet address biosci-server@net.bio.net. Please do not enter the info faq command on the Subject: line of your message since the e-mail server ignores text on the Subject: line. The FAQ is also posted on the first of each month to the newsgroup BIONEWS/bionet.announce immediately following the posting of the BIOSCI information sheet. **** BIOSCI USER ADDRESS DIRECTORY **** Please take this opportunity to add your name and address information to the BIOSCI User Address Database if you have not already done so. Below is the address form that we would like each reader of the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups to complete and return if you would like to be listed in our database. The database serves as a directory that enables biologists, who are currently using (or even just reading) the BIOSCI newsgroups, to look up e-mail addresses and other information about our users. The address database is reindexed nightly for WAIS, waismail, and gopher access. If you have access to gopher, connect to net.bio.net to search the database. If you have access to WAIS, please use our WAIS source biologists-addresses.src. If you are not on the Internet, please use our waismail server (send the word "help" to waismail@net.bio.net to get instructions; any text on the Subject: line of your message will be ignored, so put the help command in the body of the mail message.). Please carefully follow the instructions for completing the form below and return it to either of the following two addresses (whichever is more convenient for you).

The conference will be held at the University of Ballarat in country Victoria, from the evening of Tuesday the 18th of April ('Easter Tuesday') to lunchtime on Friday the 21st of April, 1995. Immediately following Crystal XIX at the University will be a two day inorganic solid state chemistry conference, the "Bevan Fest", to mark the formal retirement of Professor "Judge" Bevan from Flinders University. More details are given on the last page. THE VENUE ^^^^^^^^^ Ballarat University is set on 110 hectares in a natural bushland setting about 10 km south east of the city of Ballarat. Very pleasant on-campus accommodation is provided by the Mount Helen Residence, capable of accommodating 514 people in single bed/study rooms. Games room, kitchen areas, laundries and outdoor barbecue facilities are available in the residential complex. Excellent recreational facilities are available including fully equipped gymnasia, jogging and walking tracks and an Arboretum. All meals are provided by the University's catering service and fully licensed Bar facilities serve the various function rooms. Numerous motels and other forms of accommodation are available within a few kilometres of the campus are some are given on page 6. The University has a full range of lecture and seminar facilities. It also has full AARNet access, Internet and E-mail access which can be easily arranged on request for all participants. Ballarat's weather can be quite variable in April. Please allow for both mild to hot days and cold nights. TRANSPORT ^^^^^^^^^ Ballarat University is one and a half hours drive from the centre of Melbourne. A map showing how to get there will be included in the final circular (Feb. 95). There are up to six shuttle bus services per day from Tullamarine airport to Ballarat. Cost, about $20 each way. Numbers permitting (minimum of 4 passengers per trip), these buses will detour to the University campus. The committee will help coordinate private car transport from Melbourne. Train and private bus services also run from the centre of Melbourne to Ballarat. Please indicate your form of transport on the conference registration form. Rental cars from Melbourne's Tullamarine Airport cost upwards from around $55 per day which includes insurance and unlimited mileage. SCIENTIFIC PROGRAM ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The Conference Lecture will be presented by the 1987 Fellow, Professor Michael Hart, Emeritus Professor of Physics, University of Manchester. He will speak on new developments, applications and future directions for synchrotron studies in Materials Science. It is anticipated that the majority of talks will be drawn from the submitted abstracts. We particularly welcome both oral and poster presentations from students. In addition to the usual topic areas (protein crystallography, inorganic and mineral structures, etc) we encourage contributions in areas such as :- Applications of synchrotron radiation Structure studies using less traditional methods such as XANES, EXAFS, MASNMR, DAFS, etc. Structure determinations using electron microscopy/diffraction (TEM/SAED), and neutron diffraction. Crystallographic teaching New developments in crystallographic hardware/software Posters will be displayed throughout the conference. There will be a poster session on the Wednesday evening, accompanied by refreshments. SOCIAL PROGRAM ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ A mixer will be held on the Tuesday evening. This will be supplemented by a wine tasting presented by a local wine maker (Dominique Portet, Taltarni Vineyard). Non drinkers will be catered for! :-) Various activities are planned for the Thursday afternoon, depending on interest shown. These include a visit to Sovereign Hill (an 1850's gold rush theme park), a tour of Pyrenees Wineries and a tour of Ballarat and its surrounds. Please indicate on the registration form if you are interested in participating in one of these activities. The Poster Session will be held on the Wednesday evening, with refreshments provided. The Conference Dinner is on the Thursday evening, with an after-dinner talk by Professor Alec Moodie. Professor Moodie has graciously agreed to give a talk encompassing some history/ personal reminiscences associated with Professor Sandy Mathieson's distinguished career at CSIRO (Chemical Physics). Such a talk is particularly timely given the approach of Professor Mathieson's 75th birthday and the centenary of the discovery of X-rays. REGISTRATION The "complete" registration form is available by contacting the conference office. A Postscript versions of the complete 2nd circular can also be obtained by anonymous ftp to :- sol.dmp.csiro.au:/pub/xtallography/xtal-19/2nd-a4.ps (A4 Paper Size) sol.dmp.csiro.au:/pub/xtallogrpahy/xtal-19/2nd-let.ps (Letter Paper Size) We will accept late registrations from Honours and postgraduate students who commence their studies after 1st February and attempt to organise accommodation for them. Note that in addition to single-room on-campus accommodation, there are a number of budget priced motels/hotels close to the University, see examples on page 6. Please indicate your preference on the registration form. ABSTRACTS ^^^^^^^^^ An abstract submission form is given with the complete second circular (available from the conference office) fsmust be submitted with each abstract. The deadline for abstract submission is the 1st February, 1995. You are asked to indicate on the form whether you have a preference for an oral submission but please remember that there are a limited number of lecture slots available. Abstracts must not be more than one A4 page in length and should adhere to the style in the complete second circular. Please use an 11pt Times Roman font if available, an A4 page size and margins of 3cm all around. The presenting author is underlined. The completed book of abstracts will allot one A4 page per abstract. We are planning to process and print the abstracts ourselves. Therefore, in addition to the hardcopy of your abstract we require an electronic submission. This can be on an IBM formatted computer disk or E-mail. We are able to deal with many word- processor formats but prefer Word for Windows 2.0, Word for DOS, Word5 (Macintosh) or Wordperfect. If you wish to submit by E-mail, convert the binary document file into an ASCII equivalent using either the MIME or UUENCODE protocols. If you are unsure of how to do this, ask your local system manager or computer guru. Most decent E-mail programs can support one of the above. E-mail submissions and queries should be sent to XTAL-19@dmp.csiro.au. POSTERS ^^^^^^^ Posters will be displayed throughout the conference and there will be one organised poster session on the Wednesday evening. The space available for each poster will be 1.2m wide and 1.4m high, on light blue cloth screens. Attachments will be via Velcro fasteners and will be available at the meeting.

Felix itself is installed in INDIGO-2 workstation. We should be very pleased if someone can tell us what kind of X-window program (and price) for this kind of job. Is there any Mac X-window shareware? Thanks in advance.

We are using PCs (486 & 386) and only my lucky boss has a Mac. We run remotely Felix-X (from a Personal Iris 4D/35) and VnmrX (from a SUN Sparc2). The X-servers we use are: 1)PC-Xview v.4.1 for DOS, from Network Computing Device (ca.1k$) 2)HCL-eXceed v.3.3.1 for Windows, from Hummingbird Communications (ca.1k$) They are both working properly but PC-Xview is faster and can use a virtual screen; with HCL-eXceed you need at least a 486/50Mhz to avoid sleeping while displaying matrices. For both you need also a graphic board with 1MByte memory to get the same colours you have on Unix machines. If there is any Varian spectrometer in your dept check the System Operation Manual and/or the 93-94 issues of Magnetic Moments, for more details. Mac-X: we are able to remotely login on all the Unix Network but we are not able to get any graphic: we are still investigating on it. I hope this will help you, but if you need more comments contact me.

We have several such PCs connected through Ethernet to our worksations (IBM/ SliconGraphics). X-Window running on these PCs are flawless. The only problem with Linux is that it is difficult for beginners to install (i.e. need to read the manual carefully), but for $30 this is worth it. D.J.
