Me at my desk at MIT

The Dr. Alex Rich Laboratory is where I did scientific research during Summer 2002/December 2002. It is located in the Deptartment of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA, Summer 2002/December 2002.

Research

In 1979, Rich and co-workers at MIT accidentally grew a crystal of Z-DNA. Because of my research at OSU on Z-DNA and its biological role and because Dr. Rich is one of the leading experts on Z-DNA, I went to work for him at MIT. Our collaboration resulted in a paper published on Z-DNA and a possible biological role:

  • P. Christoph Champ, Sandor Maurice, Jeffery M. Vargason, Tracy Camp, and P. Shing Ho (2004). Distributions of Z-DNA and nuclear factor I in human chromosome 22: a model for coupled transcriptional regulation. Nucleic Acids Research, 32(22):6501-6510.
