Research Spotlight Sept 2018 – NCDIR technology at work to assist researchers in the understanding RNA pol II repression
Watching mold grow has never been so informative thanks to ODELAY – a tool developed by the Aitchison lab to quantitatively monitor yeast growth!
Welcome to NCDIR!
The National Center for Dynamic Interactome Research (NCDIR) is a Biotechnology Resource Center funded by the NIH. We are four labs across the USA carrying out cutting-edge research in the fields of molecular and cellular biology. We are at the forefront of methodological and technology development to aid researches in both the medical and general sciences. Welcome and explore!

Intergrative Modeling Platform
The Integrative Modeling Platform (IMP) allows comprehensive structural characterization of biomolecules ranging from small molecules to massive macromolecular complexes. IMP provides an open source C++ and Python toolbox for solving complex modeling problems, and a number of applications for tackling some common problems in a user-friendly way.
Nanobodies
The NCDIR is actively optimizing the pipeline for the production of nanobodies, highly interesting naturally occurring antibody variants isolated from Camelids. These 15 kDa antibody fragments are the topic of intense research as a tool for basic and clinical research, diagnostics, and therapeutics.
Copurification.org
Copurification.org is an external site intended as a resource for scientists to assist with the curation of images of SDS-PAGE protein gels displaying protein co-purification banding patterns resulting from affinity capture experiments.
