ALERT The majority of UNC core facilities will be closed December 23 through January 2. Some cores may have different closure dates - please contact specific core facilities or refer to the applicable core site for specific closure information.
For UNC core facilities: Thursday December 19th will be the last day to submit billing events (“Send to UNC”) to ensure they are posted in December.

We provide consultations and collaborations on research studies requiring computational structural biology methods. The analyses available through the core are not limited to the study of static structures, but also include molecular dynamics studies for analyzing the contribution of dynamic and collective motions to macromolecular functionality. When experimental structures are not available, molecular modeling studies, whereby the structure of the protein of interest is predicted using known template structures, provide 3D atomic data. All of these analyses contribute to the development of hypotheses to be tested in the laboratory, and give insight into experimental data.
Services offered: Computational modeling and design of biomolecular complexes and interactions; Molecular Dynamics Simulations; Molecular Docking; Virtual Screening; Macromolecular Interactions; Sequence and Phylogenetic Analysis.
