Protein Structure Determination
The Protein Structure Determination capability provides insights into the molecular structure of proteins, and how proteins form interactions with other molecules, for example, protein-protein, protein-DNA, protein-drug and protein-lipid complexes.
This capability uses X-ray crystallography and biophysical characterisation tools, such as circular dichroism spectroscopy, to visualise the structures.
Instrumentation
Applications
There is a broad range of applications that this capability can assist you with including:
- Three-dimensional structure determination of biological macromolecules at near atomic resolution
- Understanding structure-function relationship of biological molecules
- Atomic details of biological molecule-ligand interactions
- Structure-based drug design
We provide advice on experimental design and methodology.
