On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Over the past 7 years, our laboratory has dissected malaria parasite proteins that are involved in protein translation. Our work has highlighted the importance of parasitic tRNA synthetases as new druggable targets. We will discuss how the malaria parasite is able to utilise its resources to achieve protein translation in three separate cellular compartments. We will also discuss complex structures of two tRNA synthetases with natural product compounds, and analyse bases for development of drug resistance.
