The subject of the proposal is to create Laboratory of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics. An efficient scientific program is proposed, which will ensure that two recent large investment activities (the supercomputer project and the NMR instrument) will efficiently be used. The project is a combination of NMR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography and computer modeling. The scientific goals include both methodoly development and its applications on biologically interesting molecules. The systems studied will include oligonucleotides, peptides, carbohydrates, nucleotide-sugars, and proteins. The strategical direction for high technology will be biodegradation in the environment.
