Structural Biology Research Center (SBRC)
The Structural Biology Research Center (SBRC) is housed by the Chapman University School of Pharmacy (CUSP) in the Harry and Diane Rinker Health Science Campus, Irvine. The center offers expertise and access to cutting-edge instrumentation for biomolecular structural analysis and drug development, including x-ray crystallography, NMR spectroscopy, and protein-ligand interaction analysis.
Our mission at SBRC is to advance structure-based drug design and development by integrating of structural and biophysical techniques for the characterization of the structure and function of biomolecules and macromolecular complexes. To accomplish this mission, we aim to develop collaborations and partnerships with other academic institutions as well as Biotech and pharmaceutical companies.
Center Activities:
SBRC provides training, access to the equipment, and any needed assistance in sample preparation, as well as X-ray diffraction, NMR, and SPR data collection and analysis.
SBRC Members:
- Dr. Innokentiy Maslennikov - NMR Spectroscopy
- Dr. Miao Zhang - X-ray Crystallography
- Dr. Gennady Verkhivker - Computational Biology
