Structural Biology Instruments

Contact: Dr Matthias Floetenmeyer
Structural Biology & Cryo TEM Lab Manager

Located in the Queensland Bioscience Precinct, the Structural Biology facility is a laboratory that was purpose-built for standard and cryo-TEM sample preparation and analysis, as well as electron tomography of both resin-embedded and cryo-samples (for three-dimensional analysis).

UQ Remote Operation Crystallization and X-ray Diffraction Facility is located in the Queensland BioScience Precinct at The University of Queensland.  Protein Crystallography provides access to equipment for protein crystallization, crystal imaging and X-ray diffraction.

The CMM cryoEM Challenge invites UQ researchers to present cryoEM results acquired using CMM facilities. The goal of this challenge is to have some fun by showcasing the best structures, tomograms, and images, or by creating figures that visualize in-situ research processes. The challenge is held quarterly.
Round 2: Friday 15th of May.
