Researchers in the Baker group at MIT are studying the mechanisms of proteins that catalyze protein unfolding, which often involves large conformational changes. Which technique can be used to actively monitor these protein conformational changes? A) Förster Resonance Energy Transfer B) Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization C) Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching D) Mass Spectrometry If you chose A, you might have stood a chance at the second annual MIT Science Bowl Invitational. On Nov. 7, 192 high school students logged in to their computers for the event, where they competed to…
