You may have noticed in the December newsletter that there are now 7
Tutorials on Sunday, February 9 in Baltimore. all of the Tutorials are
listed here.
You can either register for the Tutorials on the FASEB web site or
simply Email your name and the Tutorial you want to attend to:
kmirabal@faseb.org
FAX and phone are listed at end of this message.

We may try to get some of these tutorials on the web so again we are
asking for notetakers to help out. Of course you will get in if you take

notes.
We still need a couple of people for "Peptides from Hell", and one more
for DNA sequence analysis.
Please send your interest to:

ABRF '97 TUTORIAL SESSIONS

Seven Tutorials have been scheduled for Sunday, February 9 beginning at

12:00 Noon. Those interested in participating must register by using the
registration form. Advance registration is strongly encouraged as courses

are
limited to 80 participants. On-site registration will only be allowed on

a
space available basis. The cost of the tutorial is included in the
meeting
registration fee.

12:00 PM - 2:00 PM
CONCURRENT TUTORIAL SESSIONS

TUTORIAL: ACCESSING THE GENOME DATABASE
CONSTELLATION BALLROOM F
Chair: David J. Lipman, NLM, NIH

TUTORIAL: MASS SPECTROMETRY
CONSTELLATION BALLROOM E
Chair: Kristine M. Swiderek, Beckman Res. Inst.

This workshop will introduce you to the most actual mass spectral
techniques
for the analysis of proteins and peptides. The tutorial will cover topics
which are of relevance for the use of mass spectrometry in Core
Laboratories.
It will include tandem mass spectrometry, interpretation of MS/MS
spectra,
microcapillary LC-MS, microflow techniques, ion-trap mass spectrometry,
MALDI-TOF, delayed extraction (DE) and post source decay (PSD). Most of

these
techniques will be presented in the context of the structu
ral analysis of proteins and peptides. In addition, some mass spectral
techniques for the analysis of non-protein and non-peptide material will

be
discussed.

TUTORIAL: PEPTIDES FROM HELL
CONSTELLATION BALLROOM D
Chair: John S. McMurray, Univ. of Texas, M.D. Anderson Cancer Ctr.

The request for a peptide comes into the lab. You tell the customer, or

your
friend and collaborator, "No problem. We'll have this compound made for

you
in no time!" Three weeks later all you have is an HPLC profile that looks
like a comb and one of the peaks may be the correct peptide. In this
tutorial
we'll discuss peptide synthesis projects that have gone completely wrong

and
what we have done to solve the problems.
