At Biomolecular Structure and Mechanism at Berkeley (BSMB), we study the molecular structures and mechanisms of a wide variety of biological processes, using experimental techniques that include X-ray crystallography, NMR, electron microscopy and single-molecule approaches. BSMB researchers work in the disciplines of biochemistry, biophysics, structural biology and enzymology. We are members of the departments of Bioengineering, Chemistry, MCB and/or Physics, and are part of the California Institute for Quantitative Biosciences (QB3). In addition, many of us have formal connections with the Physical Biosciences and/or Life Sciences divisions of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL).
