The Center for Biological Chemistry (CBC) provides an interdisciplinary graduate program with diverse research opportunities spanning plant biochemistry, photosynthesis studies, metabolic processes in plants and animals, metallobiochemistry, enzyme function, cancer research, redox biology, and molecular biology. Faculty from biochemistry and collaborating departments like animal science, agronomy, chemistry, and biological sciences support the program. Teaching activities primarily take place in labs and classrooms at the George W. Beadle Center for Genetics and Biomaterials Research. This facility hosts most department-affiliated faculty in cutting-edge research labs, along with core resources from the Center for Biotechnology and Redox Biology Center. Available resources encompass mass spectrometry, spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, plant transformation, and microscopy services. The center also features an exceptional plant growth and greenhouse facility, plus specialized equipment for cell analysis, surface plasmon resonance, ultracentrifugation, and advanced DNA sequencing technologies.
