The major fields of research of the department are organic chemistry of double-stranded nucleic acids and NK-protein complexes, study of the structure and functions of ribonucleoproteins using the chemical approaches.
There are 3 laboratories within the department. The total staff of the department is 42 employees including 1 RAS Academician, 2 RAS corresponding members, 12 Doctors of Science, 22 Candidates of Science and 30 postgraduate students. Every year there are about 20-25 diploma research papers completed at the department. The department is tightly connected with Belozersky Research Institute of Physico-Chemical Biology. The teaching staff of the department together with the three chemical departments of the institute form a associated teaching body. The department also provides a workshop on protein chemistry and chemistry of nucleic acids. The equipment for the workshop is provided by Belozersky Research Institute of Physico-Chemical Biology. The department has also developed close links with Shemyakin and Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry where the students can have their practical training.
