Dr. Aleksandar Višnjevac spent a month in the partner lab at the University of Paris Cite with the task of synthesizing gram quantities of SBB1/SBB2 which have been identified as ideal candidates for the recognition of various DNA/RNA chains. The product (SBB1) is successfully prepared and we are all set now for the second round of crystallization experiments with the macromolecular complexes formed by SBB1, Cu(I) complex of SBB1 and SBB2 and chosen polynucleic chains.
