crystal image #003
Part of my dissertation project involved reconstructing 500+ million year old caspase proteins using a phlyogenetic technique called ancestral state reconstruction. Each of the 11 human caspases evolved discrete regulatory mechanisms, if I can determine how they evolved, then we can design drugs that regulate their activity.
Feel free to ask questions if you are intersted.
thanks for looking

Cool crystallography images! Keep on nucleating :)
