Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
DNA Protein Core Facility
The recombinant DNA/protein Facility functions to stimulate the competitiveness of
biomolecular research activities at Oklahoma State University and throughout Oklahoma
by providing access to essential advanced technologies whose availability or price
might might otherwise be prohibitive to individual investigators.
To fulfill this mission, the Facility performs specialized biochemical analysis, manages
a battery of multi-user equipment, provides technical expertise, and vends specialized
biochemicals. The facility operates as a non-profit entity, providing its services
at or below actual costs with assistance from OSU's Agricultural Experiment Station,
the Office of Vice-President of Research, and the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular
Biology.

Sequencing Options
Not all templates are created equal. We have a number of methods that can reliably sequence templates from run-of-the-mill DNA to highly repetitive, high-GC, high-AT, and other difficult DNA templates.
Sequencing Services
Fragment Analysis
Fragment Analysis is simply the analysis of labeled PCR fragments that takes advantage
of the rapidity and accuracy of the capillary electrophoresis capabilities of our
DNA sequencing instrument.
Minor Instruments Pod
We maintain a broad range of common-use analytical equipment for use by university
personnel and guests.
