SUMMARY:Meet the Librarian: An Introduction to The Graduate Center Library's Science Resources
DESCRIPTION:Meet the Librarian: An Introduction to The Graduate Center Library’s Science Resources\nJoin us on September 18\, 2020 at 2 p.m. for a session with Graduate Center Science Librarian Mason Brown\, who will be discussing how to access and discover STEM research materials from off campus. \nConducting science research remotely can be done successfully with a few simple but critical tools. In this session\, Mason will be discussing how to find individual articles\, browse entire journals\, and access other relevant research materials remotely. In addition\, Mason will: \n•    Provide an overview of Zotero citation management software\n•    Highlight useful and notable science-specific databases\n•    Cover journals that can be accessed remotely\n•    Demonstrate how to log-in to resources from home \nThere will be opportunity for Q&A. \nYou can sign-up here [go.pardot.com] for this event and the entire Communicating Your Science Series. \nStay tuned for the launch of the Graduate Center Science Communications Academy webpage\, where you can learn about our events and access science communications training tools. \nThis event is part of the Communicating Your Science series. \nJoin us on the third Friday of the month at 2 pm for a series of talks and workshops aimed at helping STEM professionals publish and communicate their research. This series will feature presentations by The Graduate Center’s science librarian and communications staff\, journal editors\, and reporters. The goal of this series is to enhance the professional development and science communication skills of CUNY STEM faculty\, postdocs\, and students. \nFor more information\, contact Reima Ramsamooj at rramsamooj@gc.cuny.edu.

SUMMARY:Seminar in Biochemistry\, Biophysics & Biodesign: Vincenzo Venditti\, Iowa State University
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Vincenzo Venditti\, Assistant Professor\, Department of Chemistry\, Iowa State University \nTitle: Conformational disorder in regulation of biological catalysts \nAbstract: Proteins display different degrees of structural heterogeneity\, going from proteins that fold into a unique rigid structure to intrinsically disordered proteins\, with a continuum of possibilities in between. Conformational disorder is emerging as an important feature of biopolymers\, regulating a vast array of cellular functions\, including signaling\, protein aggregation\, and phase separation. In this seminar\, I will present NMR\, crystallography\, computer simulation\, protein engineering\, and functional assay data that support a role for structural heterogeneity and conformational disorder in functional regulation of slow enzymes such as the C-terminal domain Enzyme I of the bacterial phosphotransferase system (PTS)\, and the human RNA demethylases FTO and Alkbh5. Strategies will be discussed as to exploit structural disorder for the development of specific inhibitors of these important pharmaceutical targets. \nFor more information about this seminar and about joining in online\, please contact Hyacinth Camillieri at hcamillieri@gc.cuny.edu

SUMMARY:Seminar in Biochemistry\, Biophysics & Biodesign: Timothy J. Stasevich\, Colorado State University
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Timothy J. Stasevich\, Associate Professor\, Dept. of Biochemistry & Molecular Biology Colorado State University \nTitle: Real-time quantification of gene expression with single-molecule precision in living cells \nAbstract: My lab is creating technology to image gene expression in real time and with single-molecule precision in living cells. Using tandem-repeat mRNA and protein tags\, genetically encoded intrabodies\, and single-molecule microscopy\, we now regularly image the live-cell translation dynamics of single mRNAs. In this talk\, I will introduce our technology and describe how it can be used to amplify fluorescent signals within single translation sites. I will show how we quantify these signals to determine the size\, shape\, subcellular localization\, and mobilities of translation sites\, as well as their ribosomal densities and translational initiation and elongation kinetics. I will then highlight a few recent applications of our technology\, including the imaging of translation shutdown during cellular stress\, HIV-1 translational frameshifting\, and non-canonical translation initiation at internal ribosomal entry sites. I will conclude by discussing new intrabodies my lab has engineered that bind the classic HA and FLAG epitopes in living cells. As these intrabodies can be encoded on plasmids\, they can easily be adapted by other labs to image translation in multiple colors and in diverse living systems. \nFor more information about this seminar and about joining in online\, please contact Hyacinth Camillieri at hcamillieri@gc.cuny.edu
