I also get anxious when I find that there are whole spectroscopic ideas that I have not ever heard of... Mössbauer spectroscopy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
A quote from the homepage in explanation: "The DSSP program was designed by Wolfgang Kabsch and Chris Sander to standardize secondary structure assignment. DSSP is a database of secondary structure assignments (and much more) for all protein entries in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). DSSP is also the program that calculates DSSP entries from PDB entries. "

A quote from inside an announcement (2003) from Nature Structural Biology: "... three organizations have formed a collaboration to oversee the newly formed worldwide Protein Data Bank (wwPDB; http://www.wwpdb.org/). The Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB), the Macromolecular Structure Database (MSD) at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) and the Protein Data Bank Japan (PDBj) at the Institute for Protein Research in Osaka University will serve as custodians of the wwPDB, with the goal of maintaining a single archive of macromolecular structural data that is freely and publicly available to the global community." ... http://www.nature.com/nsmb...

Example quote from inside: "first, several properties affect the performance of the probes during the hybridization experiment including probe melting temperature and probe self-hybridization potential (Bloomfield et al., 2000). Second, the manufacturing of the arrays requires specific chemistry which may damage longer probes and renders certain nucleotide sequences difficult to accurately manufacture (Lockhart et al., 1996)". These things are always more complicated than they seem at first. :)

Every Christmas the Dekker household has its annual Creation vs Evolution argument*. This year, I plan to swat up! *This is followed by the "interaction" about whether the previous "interaction" was a discussion, a debate, an argument, or a fight.
