Lab and chemical safety for the university in general and our lab

In case of medical emergency or fire, call "112".

In case of fire or evacuation, follow building procedures. Building procedures and evacuation instructions can be found in every hallway.

Remember: all chemical spills are not handled equally. Keep in mind what you are working with and act appropriately. 

All lab members will have received thorough safety instructions by our LabTech. If you have not received instructions, reach out to Susanne or Maria.   

Need to know anything and everything about a protein? Go to Uniprot.

Amyloid Explorer is a structural database for Amyloids, in the same way PDB is a structural database for proteins.

Need to compare your proteins or genomes sequence with other species to find similarities? BLAST!

Got your flouresence data from the platereader? Great! Now plot it in AmyloFit. 

Want to know how to use amylofit, what it does, and how it actually works? Awesome, check out this article describing AmyloFit in detail. 

Want to learn slightly more than just basics about Electron Microscopy and Cryo-EM? Check out this great series of lectures by G. Jensen at California's Institute of Technology. It comes highly recomended.   

A data bank of all EM Density maps and their related research articles.

Need structural information about a protein? Find it on PDB, download the protein and take a look at it in ChimeraX.

Don't have chimeraX installed? Click the link below and get a free copy.

Tamarind Bio is a website host for many molecular dynamics tools, like Alphafold, bindcraft, Boltz, docking style tools, binding designers, and many more. 

Simply make an account to get started. No programming skills needed. Though a basic grasp on how to use ChimeraX/Pymol is a requirement. Otherwise you'll be completely lost. 

FoldX and its subsidiaries, like DNAX and BackX, are protein folding prediction tools. 

Are you a confident linux user? Are you a Python/Anaconda whisperer? And do you have access to atleast 1 discrete modern GPU?
Then GROMACS is the molecular Dynamics program for you.
