THE SOUTHEAST COLLABORATORY FOR STRUCTURAL
GENOMICS
(SECSG) is a networked center across four southeast
states with five partner institutions: » University
of Georgia
» Georgia
State University
» University
of Alabama at Birmingham
»
University
of Alabama in Huntsville
»
Duke University
Our research focus is to develop and test
experimental and computational strategies for high throughput
structure determination of proteins by X-ray crystallography
and NMR methods and to apply these strategies to scan the
entire genome of an organism at a rapid pace. The
eukaryotic organisms, Caenorhabditis elegans, Homo sapiens and an ancestrally-related prokaryotic microorganism having
a
small genome, Pyrococcus furiosus, are selected as
representative
genomes. |
