Acquisition of a Shared Ultracentrifuge and HPLC for Plant Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Studies

这项提案要求获得资金以获得超离心机和高效液相色谱仪。七名研究人员提出的项目都与植物科学有关，这些项目将利用所要求的仪器。这些项目包括：萜类化合物的生物化学，天然植物保护中的蛋白酶抑制剂，种子发育的分子生物学，植物基因表达的调控，植物中的抗坏血酸代谢，根瘤菌-豆类共生中的营养交换，以及叶和种子中的脂肪生物合成。

This proposal requests funds to obtain an ultracentrifuge and an HPLC. Seven investigators have proposed projects, all dealing with plant science, that will make use of the instrumentation requested. The projects include: the biochemistry of terpenoids, proteinase inhibitors in natural plant protection, the molecular biology of seed development, regulation of plant gene expression, ascorbic acid metabolism in plants, nutrient exchange in the Rhizobium-legume symbiosis, and lipid biosynthesis in leaves and seeds.
