Determination of Structure-Function Redox Potential Relationships for Flavoproteins and Metalloenzymes

女性职业发展研究机会奖 项目是在分析和表面化学的一般领域 以及生物电化学领域。 之前的十二个 在1989年9月1日开始的一个月期间，斯坦科维奇教授将 开展一项培养基因工程专业知识的计划 这样她就可以产生具有明确定义的金属酶 分子特征作为模型， 测试生物电子转移过程的理论。 到 获得这方面的专业知识，斯坦科维奇教授将与 不列颠哥伦比亚省的格兰特莫克教授， 定点突变领域的专家。 这个职业发展奖将使斯坦科维奇教授， 大大扩展了她在该领域的研究能力， 生物电化学 这项研究的结果可以承受 对当前对生物电子的理解有重要意义 转移过程。

This Research Opportunities for Women Career Advancement Award project is in the general area of analytical and surface chemistry and in the subfield of bioelectrochemistry. During the twelve month period beginning 1 September 1989, Professor Stankovich will undertake a program to develop expertise in genetic engineering such that she can produce metalloenzymes with well-defined molecular characteristics to serve as models with which she can test theories of biological electron transfer processes. To acquire this expertise, Professor Stankovich will collaborate with Professor Grant Mauk of the University of British Columbia who is an expert in the area of site directed mutagenesis. This Career Advancement Award will enable Professor Stankovich to broaden significantly her research capabilities in the area of bioelectrochemistry. The results of this research could bear significantly on the current understanding of biological electron transfer processes.
