The topic of the May Biochem
CUME exam (5/17/04) is
No, no, seriously - there is
no answer for that.
Instead I decided to give you
a topic that was difficult but still possible to pass. In fact, it is difficult for me too,
but it is a fact of life in the post-genomic world that we are all going to
have to face: dealing with mounds of data about protein-protein interactions (for
example).
I picked this paper as an
example:
Yao et al. (March, 2004)
Interaction Networks in Yeast Define and Enumerate the Signaling Steps of the
Vertebrate Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor. PloS Biology 2:0355-0367
(It is an online journal and
can be obtained at http://www.plosbiology.org/)
Read this paper and
understand it before you take the cume next week.
