  • Protein resonance assignment
  • Protein – ligand interaction mapping

Access / Core facility experience: 

The LiU NMR facility is part of the ProLinC Biophysics Core Facility at LiU since 2015 (https://liu.se/forskning/prolinc).  ProLinC serves >125 users annually, and NMR forms a substantial part of this platform. ProLinC is part of the ARBRE/MOBIEU European Biophysics network, and is a node in the European MOSBRI biophysics infrastructure, which was recently (today, Nov 3rd) approved funding as a transnational core facility with EU support through INFRAIA. All access LU NMR facility

Access to NMR equipment at LiU LU (both internal and external users) is made through ProLinC, where NMR forms a substantial part. NMR@LiU currently engages 12 research groups at IFM (from advanced materials to protein science), 9 research groups at the Medical Faculty (metabolomics) and 5 at ITN (soft materials). NMR at LIU is also a critical part of the SMILE project, supported by Tillväxtverket to facilitate SME access to national large-and-medium infrastructures. 

The PReSTO VR compute infrastructure project, which aims to comprise NMR software for biochemical/biostructural applications, is housed at LiU within its NSC facility (National Supercomputer Centre; SNIC).
