This award supports the purchase of instrumentation needed for genomic DNA analysis at the Center for Marine Genomic Studies of the Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory. The two instruments to be purchased are a second-generation polymerase chain reaction (PCR) thermal cycler with four-channel fluorescence microplate reader that permits monitoring of reactions in process, and a robotic microplate processor that allows efficient set up of the 96-well plates used in the PCR device. The instruments will facilitate studies of the expression and function of genes in marine organisms with particular emphasis on improving the understanding of physiological processes in relation to environmental determinants such as salinity and temperature. Four NSF-funded research projects will make major use of the requested instruments. These focus on molecular studies of membrane transport proteins and associated enzymes in the gills of euryhaline teleost fish and of crustaceans.

该奖项支持在沙漠山岛生物实验室海洋基因组研究中心购买基因组DNA分析所需的仪器。购买的两种仪器是第二代聚合酶链反应（PCR）热循环仪，带有四通道荧光酶标仪，可以监测过程中的反应，以及机器人微孔板处理器，可以有效设置PCR装置中使用的96孔板。这些仪器将促进对海洋生物基因表达和功能的研究，特别侧重于增进对与盐度和温度等环境决定因素有关的生理过程的了解。国家科学基金会资助的四个研究项目将主要使用所要求的仪器。 这些研究集中在广盐硬骨鱼和甲壳类鳃中膜转运蛋白和相关酶的分子研究。
