# Oklahoma COBRE in Structural Biology

> **NIH NIH P30** · UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA · 2024 · $1,141,533

## Abstract

Project Summary (Overall Center)
Structural biology is a multidisciplinary research area that focuses on the important relationship between
macromolecular structure and function. The Oklahoma Center of Biomedical Research Excellence (COBRE) in
Structural Biology (OCSB) was established in 2012 with Phase 1 funding. The OCSB supports faculty research
projects and two research core facilities on the OU-Norman and OU Health Sciences Center campuses for
crystallization of macromolecules of biomedical importance, X-ray data collection, protein expression and
purification and biophysical analysis. The overall objective of this Phase 3 application is to provide essential
research support in the State of Oklahoma and the region in the form of shared core facilities, training and
expertise in structural biology, and an open competitive pilot project program. The specific aims of this Phase 3
application are to: 1) Sustain and enhance the research cores established and developed in Phases 1 and 2 and
facilitate their transition to self-sustaining cores and 2) Increase the critical mass of investigators in the field of
structural biology in the State of Oklahoma by supporting researchers through a competitive pilot project
program.
