Structural and Chemical Basis of Protein Function

Structural and Chemical Basis of Protein Function

Structure

Research in the area of structural and biophysical chemistry is a central strength of the Department of Biochemistry. Projects are aimed at understanding the molecular underpinnings of biological function and provides a framework to develop novel therapeutics and direct metabolic engineering efforts. Structure/function projects are enriched by the NIH-funded Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) Nebraska Redox Biology Center (RBC) and close partnership with the Nebraska Center for Biotechnology.
