Jian is introducing mutations into the gene for the Rieske iron-sulfur protein to investigate whether they increase superoxide anion formation.
 Ember shows off a sample of yeast bc1 complex that was purified by an automated chromatographic procedure. Carlos Gomez-Lojero, a visiting professor from the National University in Mexico City, is taking spectra of the bc1 complex with inhibitors bound.
Vincenzo Zara, a visiting professor from Lecce, Italy,is constructing yeast strains in which genes for subunits of the bc1 complex have been deleted.
Torsten and the fermentation bottles. It might not be very sophisticated, but we routinely grow 80 liters of yeast at a time, with no fermentor malfunctions!
 Jacques is searching a data-base on the Internet with his lap-top.
Nicole, from the Barlowe lab, hanging out!
Raul is setting up the rapid scanning spectrophotometer.
Nick is synthesizing new inhibitors of the bc1 complex.

Laura, a research technician, keeps the lab running smoothly.

Philip Hill, a student from University College London, has created mutations in the yeast bc1 complex analagous to those that confer resistance to atovaquone in Pneumocystis carinii.
Ben Lange, a research assistant, is using energy-minimization programs to model inhibitors of the bc1 complex into the crystal structure of the enzyme.
