Facility Description
X-ray Crystallography facility core is to provide investigators state-of-the-art equipment and resources for crystallographic analysis of their target small inorganic or organic molecules as well as quality check and initial data collection of macromolecular crystals. The core facility offers and operates as a full service core by performing X-ray diffraction data collection processing, phasing, crystallographic refinement, model building, and visualization. The structural data obtained by the core will provide scientists with a wealth of information, such as molecular geometry, coordination environment and intermolecular interactions. Besides, the facility core also provides crystal growth consultation and assistance for crystal structure publication and deposition.
