The structural analysis guides further mutagenesis and biochemical experiments in both reconstituted systems in vitro and in primary cells, to finely analyze the mechanisms that mediate
macromolecular function, or lead to a pathological dysfunction.

A partial list would include the Patterson
function, isomorphous replacement, and anomalous scattering, which enabled the determination of organic structures; direct (i.e., purely computational) methods of phase determination, which enabled small - molecule crystallography to be almost totally automated; synchrotron radiation and area detectors, which together made it possible to collect data on
macromolecular structures in hours instead of months; and automatic interpretation of electron density maps.
We will continue to study the relationship between the 3D structure and the
function of
macromolecular complexes using a combination of 3D Electron Microscopy, Cryo - Electron Tomography, single particle analysis, correlative fluorescence microscopy, image analysis, and needed biochemical techniques.
Proteins: Concepts in Biochemistry teaches the biochemical concepts underlying protein structure, evolution, stability, folding, and enzyme kinetics, and explains how interactions in
macromolecular structures determine protein
function.

function.
Information on the structure of macromolecules is important for biology and medicine because the
function of many important biological processes can be directly linked to
macromolecular structure or changes therein.
A) To enable protein structure elucidation of membrane proteins the primary target of most therapeutics and large
macromolecular complexes such as viruses; B) Design proteins with novel structure and / or
function to explore novel approaches to protein therapeutics and deepen our understanding of protein folding pathways.
