Center of Excellence in Biotechnology (Research)

Abstract

The ARO Center of Excellence in Biotechnology was established within the Cornell University Biotechnology Program in 1986. The research focus of the Center was protein structure and function, with special emphasis on enzymes and receptors. Research projects funded through the Center represented a multidisciplinary attack on the molecular basis of how proteins and enzymes work, how energy and enzymic processes are coupled through cell membranes, how membrane receptors are used to transmit signals to the cell, and how signals are transmitted in the nervous system. The final report summarizes the results of the research.... Nervous system, Center of excellence, Biotechnology, Enzymes, Receptors, Proteins, Cell membranes, Membrane receptors.
