Part 1: BE Communication Lab workshop

Our communication instructors, Dr. Sean Clarke and Dr. Prerna Bhargava, will join us today for a workshop on writing impactful abstracts and titles.

Part 2: Prepare samples for DSF assay

  1. Each team will setup triplicate reactions for 5 different conditions:
    • Condition 1: control protein (?)
    • Condition 2: control protein AND control substrate (?)
    • Condition 3: no protein
    • Condition 4: FKBP12
    • Condition 5: FKBP12 AND rapamycin
    • Condition 6: FKBP12 AND ligand #1
    • Condition 7: FKBP12 AND ligand #2


Reagent (stock concentration) Final concentration of stock reagent in reaction Volume of stock reagent in reaction
FKBP12 (1 mg/mL) 1.2 μg/mL
DMSO (1%) 0.2%
rapamycin (50 μM) 10 μM
ligand (200 μM) 40 μM
dye (5X) 1X
PBS (1X) add for a total of 10 μL per reaction
