The Protein Facility of the Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI) in Amsterdam has a strong record in structural biology using macromolecular X-ray crystallography, Electron Microscopy and sample preparation, and is also extremely well-equipped for studying molecular biophysics.
We are very experienced in macromolecular crystallization and offer to our users:
- Robotics for preparation of nanoliter crystallization drops in 96-well format.
- Storage of crystallization plates at 4°C or 20°C.
- Screening and ranking of crystallization conditions in 96-well format (TOPAZ, AutoInspex station).
Solving crystal structures is beyond the scope of the facility!
