SUMMARY:An overview of protein phase behavior - Prof Neer Asherie\, Yeshiv

DESCRIPTION:A homogenous protein solution can undergo several transformati
 ons when the conditions are changed. The proteins can form crystals\, dens
 e liquid phases\, aggregates and gels. These transformations are central t
 o numerous practical applications\, such as protein x-ray crystallography\
 , protein condensation diseases and the industrial purification of protein
 s.    In this talk I review the efforts that have been made over the past 
 twenty years to understand protein phase behavior from a physical perspect
 ive with an emphasis on globular proteins in aqueous solution.  I also pre
 sent recent insights and conclude with some ideas for future directions.
