This Unit focuses on the technical and scientific management of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and molecular biophysics instrumentation available at the Structural Biology Programme. It provides CNIO researchers with equipment and experimental support for biophysical techniques in studies of molecules involved in cancer. This includes the in vitro characterisation of: i) the structure and dynamics of proteins by NMR and ii) the affinity and kinetics of protein interactions with other biopolymers and small molecules that could represent initial hits in drug discovery or research compounds for biophysical and functional studies. Furthermore, we use NMR to screen libraries of fluorinated fragments against macromolecular targets and to characterise the metabolic profiles of biofluids, cell growth media, and cell and tissue extracts from both animal models of cancer and human samples. The Unit is also endowed with a state-of-the-art, multiple well microplate reader equipped with diverse detectors (absorbance; fluorescence intensity and polarisation; time resolved fluorescence; luminescence and AlphaScreen) for in-solution and adherent cell measurements.
