Services

  • Crystallization consultations
    • Good quality crystals are essential for structure determination and growing them can be difficult. We are happy to help!
  • Data collection, processing, and analysis
    • Harvesting, and mounting of air-, water-, temperature-, light-sensitive, or solvent-containing crystals
    • Data collection from 80 K - 400 K
    • Example Report found here
  • Structure determination and display
    • Absolute configuration of light atom structures - we recommend at least one oxygen for every 10 carbon atoms.
  • Manuscript preparation
    • Data presentation
    • Structure display
  • Training
    • Current training is conducted on a one-on-one basis. Extended training is subjected to hourly billing upon agreement. Most of our users utilize our drop-off service.
  • Data archiving
    • The current facility practice is to store raw frames data using the UM BOX cloud service.

When publishing any structure determined from the core facility please acknowledge the following grants found directly below.

  • X‐ray crystallographic data were collected at the University of Montana X-ray diffraction core facility supported by the Center for Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics CoBRE (National Institutes of Health, CoBRE NIGMS P30GM140963). Single crystal X-ray diffraction data were collected using a Bruker D8 Venture, principally supported by NSF MRI CHE1337908
