CSMP Mission

The Center for Structures of Membrane Proteins provides atomic structure determination for membrane proteins including both bacterial and human membrane proteins.

Principal Investigators

CSMP's Principal Investigators include scientists from 4 Institutions: UCSF, Salk Institute, UCDavis, and UCLA. All are in California and will be in close touch with each other via an intranet, phone, and direct contacts. Each principal investigator has played a key role in the discovery of major membrane protein biology, and/or in the development of procedures to understand membrane proteins at the molecular level.
