Welcome
The National Magnetic Resonance Facility at Madison (NMRFAM) is a state of the art NMR spectrometer facility located in the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. NMRFAM equipment and resources are available to ALL scientists both within and outside of the university. Our experienced staff is available to train users as well as provide consultation and collaboration on experimental design, dat
a collection and analysis. Funding comes from the NIH NIGMS-supported P41 Biomedical Technology Research Centers (BTRC) and from user fees.
(1) fast data collection and automated data analysis of biomacromolecules
(2) technology for larger proteins, nucleic acids, and complexes
(3) investigations of metal-containing (paramagnetic) proteins
(4) dynamics of macromolecules
(5) structure-function investigation of RNA molecules and their complexes with metal ions and proteins
(6) metabolomics and natural products
