"Jahrbuch der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft" |
|
In its "Jahrbuch" (Annual Report) the Max Planck Society renders account on the scientific research performed at its institutes. The Jahrbuch includes scientific research reports from all the Max Planck facilities, the scientific presentations held at the General Meeting, as well a CD-ROM containing a bibliographic database of all the scientific publications of the Max Planck Society since 1998. The Jahrbuch is not available in English.
Below you will find reports (in German, with an English abstract) of the Max Planck Institute for Biophysical Chemistry from the last years.

Dietrich oder Schlüsselbund: Was ein Protein und ein Panzerknacker gemeinsam haben |
|
|
Author: Griesinger, Christian
Novel NMR spectroscopic parameters allowed to determine not only the average structure of the protein ubiquitin but in addition the description of a faithful ensemble of the protein in solution. The ensemble reflected especially the ... [more - in German] |

Electron spins as probes for biomoleculesElektronenspins als Sonden in Biomolekülen |
|
|
Author: Tkach, Igor und Bennati, Marina
Unpaired electrons possess a magnetic moment, which is about three orders of magnitude larger than the one of a proton. This moment can be employed as a highly sensitive probe in EPR spectroscopic investigations to gain structural ... [more - in German] |

Epigenetics: Regulation of gene activity by histone modifications Epigenetik: Regulation der Genaktivität durch Histonmodifizierungen |
|
|
Author: Fischle, Wolfgang
In all cells of our bodies DNA is found complexed with basic proteins, the so-called histones. These proteins not only organize and protect the genetic information, but are also crucially involved in all biological processes involving DNA. In ... [more - in German] |

Logistics on smallest possible space: Transport processes between cell nucleus and cytoplasmLogistik auf kleinstem Raum: Transportprozesse zwischen Zellkern und Zytoplasma |
|
|
Author: Dirk Görlich
The cell nucleus is enclosed by the nuclear envelope, lacks protein synthesis and therefore imports each and every protein from the cytosol. Conversely, the nucleus supplies the cytoplasm with nuclear products, such as ribosomes, tRNAs and mRNAs. The ... [more - in German] |

The genetic network of the circadian clock coordinates the communication between the organism and its environmentChronobiologie: Das genetische Netzwerk der zirkadianen Uhr koordiniert die Wechselwirkung zwischen Lebewesen und Umwelt |
|
|
Author: Eichele, Gregor
Circadian clocks regulate a plethora of physiological processes including the sleep/wake cycle, blood pressure and body temperature. Such clocks enable organisms to adjust to the 24-hour day/night cycle resulting from the rotation of the earth. ... [more - in German] |

|
Author: Neher, Erwin
The release of signalling molecules from a variety of cell types proceeds along very similar lines. In nerve endings neurotransmitter is stored in membrane bound containers, so called vesicles. It is released on arrival of a nerve impulse by the ... [more - in German] |

Author: Mansouri, Ahmed
A minor part of the pancreas is responsible for the secretion of hormones, such as insulin, to regulate the bloodsugar level. The mouse is used as an animal model to identify factors that drive the cellular subtype identity of these different ... [more - in German] |
