- Biomolecular NMR Facility, University of Utah Health Services, USA
The major purpose of the Center for Biomolecular NMR Spectroscopy is
to facilitate the determination of new protein, nucleic acid, and natural
product structures. The facility exists both to provide the necessary hardware
and software for NMR structural studies as well as to centralize and streamline
the various steps in NMR structure determination.

MRI Research
Macromolecular NMR Laboratory, NCI-FCRDC
We specialize in the use of high-field multi-dimensional NMR spectroscopy.
Our efforts include both development and application of new techniques
in this area to solve structures and investigate intermolecular interactions
as they effect the function of the proteins under study.

- Massachusetts General Hospital NMR Center, USA
Medical Imaging Laboratory, Johns Hopkins University
Imaging the heart and cardiovascular system with magnetic resonance
presents many challenges. Issues such as bio-compatibility, magnetic resonance
physics, patient monitoring, image analysis, computer visualization, and
clinical stress testing must be tackled simultaneously by a diverse research
team.
BTW: A very nice starting page for interest in the field of MRI

Research in Dr. Klevit's laboratory is directed towards an understanding
of molecular recognition, with an emphasis on protein-protein and protein-DNA
interactions.
Current research is focused on three different systems: the yeast transcription
factor, ADR1; the myogenic determination factor, MyoD; and a bacterial
phosphotransfer protein, HPr.

Innovative applications of stable isotopes (2H & 13C) and modern
NMR methods are being developed to measure flux through gluconeogenesis
and key metabolic pathways in patients. Clinical studies are underway.
New classes of lanthanide complexes are also under investigation that will
significantly broaden the scope of responsive imaging agents for monitoring
physiology and gene expression by MRI. The Center also places particular
importance on the training and education of established and young biomedical
scientists in the use of these powerful methods.
