This article mainly discusses the recent progress in structural genomics studies of the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris executed in the Institute of biochemistry, NCHU. Structural genomics is a new and rapidly progressing research frontier including bioinformatics, NMR, X-ray diffraction, functional genomics, and proteomics, etc. If successfully executed, it can make a significant impact toward the modern life science, biotechnique and drug development. We have made a significant progress toward this goal, and believe that Taiwan structural Genomics teams will make their its debut in future soon.
