Overview

Ongoing projects of the Biochemistry program of the Utah State University include the elucidation of mechanisms of a number of enzymes and metalloenzymes involved in nitrogen metabolism, utilization and degradation of hydrocarbons, post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and methylation, and the assembly of macromolecular enzyme systems. Departmental research impacts a diverse range of phenomena including understanding global energy and element cycles, bioremediation, and human health and disease.

Research programs are consistently funded by national agencies such as the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, and the U.S. Department of Energy.
