This is a request for funds to obtain an automated circular dichroism (CD) spectrometer which will be utilized by five major users in studies of stereochemical analysis, biomolecular structure, synthetic protein analysis and electronic spectroscopy. The individual projects are, first, an investigation of structural perturbations induced in DNAs by regulatory protein binding. Second, a study of structures of synthetic proteins and nucleation of protein folding. Third, a study of peptide and protein conformation. Fourth, an investigation of the interaction of carcinogens with DNA. Finally, a study of microscopic domains in the secondary structure and methylation of myelin basic protein.

这是为获得一台自动圆二色（CD）光谱仪而申请的资金，该光谱仪将被五个主要用户用于立体化学分析、生物分子结构、合成蛋白质分析和电子光谱学的研究。个别项目是，首先，研究结构扰动诱导的dna调节蛋白结合。第二，合成蛋白质的结构和蛋白质折叠成核的研究。第三，肽和蛋白质构象的研究。第四，研究致癌物与DNA的相互作用。最后，对髓鞘碱性蛋白二级结构和甲基化的微观结构域进行了研究。
