Protein Expression & Purification & Macromolecular Crystallography Core

Overview of Services

The Protein Expression and Purification (PEP) core specializes in the production of pure, functional proteins for structural, biophysical, and biochemical studies. The Macromolecular Crystallography (MX) core provides the support and infrastructure necessary to enable individual investigators of any experience level to initiate and successfully complete a structural biology or structural chemistry project. Together, the PEP-MX facility offers a complete gene to structure pipeline for interested scientists. We also serve as a “front-end” interface to other components of the Center for Structural Biology such as cryo EM and NMR, as well as applications in biochemical and biomedical research.
