该申请要求提供资金，用于购买区域探测器 用于收集X射线晶体学数据的系统， 在查佩尔山的北卡罗来纳州大学， 目前可用的资源不足以处理该地区的 要求.这种新的探测器将用于确定 蛋白质和核糖核酸/蛋白质复合物的研究人员在达勒姆， 查佩尔山RTP区。 一个新的设施正在建设中， 现有设备和新的探测器系统。 北方大学 卡罗莱纳医学院已承诺提供资金，用于翻新空间 位于查佩尔山校区的医学研究大楼B， 设备. 医学院提供额外的支持， 采购支持设备、服务和设备的主要行政管理 合同和初始工资的支持人员运行的设施。这 新的探测器将提高数据的能力和质量， 来自大学不同部门的八个研究小组， 以及大量研究人员的研究结果， 这八个群体。

This application requests funds for the purchase of an area detector system for the collection of x-ray crystallographic data from biomacromolecules at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. At present the resources available are not sufficient to handle the area's requirements. This new detector will be used to detemine structures of proteins and ribonucleic/protein complexes by researchers in the Durham, Chapel Hill RTP area. A new facility is under construction to house the current equipment and the new detector system. The University of North Carolina Medical School has committed funding to be used to renovate space in Medical Research Building B on the Chapel Hill Campus to house the equipment. Additional support is available from the Medical School and main UNC administration for the purchase of support equipment, service contracts and initial salary for support staff to run the facility. This new detector will increase both the capabilities and quality of data of eight research groups from diverse departments within the university as well as the results for a large number of researchers who collaborate with those eight groups.
