The von Hippel laboratory, member
of the Institute of Molecular Biology
at the University of Oregon, is dedicated to the study of macromolecules
and their interactions using molecular biology, biophysics, and classical
biochemistry methods. Directed by Professor Peter
H. von Hippel, the lab is composed of 9 members whose research interests
include: |
Protein-protein interactions at the phage T4 replication fork
(Emanuelle Delagoutte, Debra Jing, Paola Pietroni)
Polymerase
holoenzyme accessory protein interactions important for
loading
of the T4 sliding clamp onto DNA 
Primosome
assembly and function 
A
model for the T4 DNA replication fork 
Molecular basis of transcriptional regulation in prokaryotes
(Clarke Conant, Jim Goodarzi, Sandra Grieve, Kausiki Datta)
Mechanism
of rho-dependent termination
Thermodynamics
of the interactions among E. coli RNA polymerase, template DNA,
and nascent RNA
Biophysical
characterization of l N-mediated antitermination
