DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Renovation of the Chemistry Building to increase the amount of modern research facilities is critical for the future of biomedical research at the University of Arkansas. The over 13,000 sq. ft. of biomedical research space renovated by the funding requested here will be used for faculty research groups as well as for shared instrumentation laboratories. The long-term goal is to expand and improve the space available for biomedical research and allow continued growth of such research. Specific Aims: 1) The building overall as well as the specific biomedical research spaces discussed in this application will be brought up to a standard meeting all current codes and regulations. All mechanical and electrical systems will be completely replaced and most interior spaces rearranged to best meet research needs; 2) Laboratories will be renovated to house the research groups of Drs. Francis Millett, Bill Durham, Matt McIntosh, Kenneth Turnbull, and Chin Yu as well as one new faculty member to be hired; 3) Shared instrumentation space will be provided for Protein X-ray Crystallography Laboratory, Protein Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Laboratories, Protein Structure Solution and Visualization Computer Laboratory, and Mass Spectrometry Laboratories; and 4) This expanded and improved space will be used to expand existing nucleic acid chemistry, drug synthesis, and electron transport groups. It will be used to establish a new protein NMR group and a combinatorial drug discovery research group. The shared instrumentation laboratories will be used for the study and elucidation of the fundamental principles that govern the structure and function of proteins. Vacated space will be used to expand biomedical research efforts of other groups.

描述（由申请人提供）：改造化学楼，以增加现代研究设施的数量是至关重要的生物医学研究在阿肯色州大学的未来。 超过13，000平方米。英尺由这里要求的资金翻新的生物医学研究空间将用于教师研究小组以及共享仪器实验室。 长期目标是扩大和改善生物医学研究的可用空间，并使这类研究能够持续增长。 具体目标：1）本申请中讨论的建筑整体以及特定的生物医学研究空间将达到符合所有现行法规的标准。 所有的机械和电气系统将被完全更换，大部分内部空间将被重新安排，以最好地满足研究需要; 2）实验室将被翻新，以容纳弗朗西斯米利特博士，比尔达勒姆，马特麦金托什，肯尼思特恩布尔和秦玉的研究小组，以及一名新的教师将被雇用; 3）将为蛋白质X射线晶体学实验室、蛋白质核磁共振（NMR）实验室、蛋白质结构解决方案和可视化计算机实验室提供共享仪器空间，和质谱实验室;和4）这一扩大和改善的空间将用于扩大现有的核酸化学，药物合成和电子传输组。 它将用于建立一个新的蛋白质NMR组和一个组合药物发现研究组。 共用仪器实验室将用于研究和阐明支配蛋白质结构和功能的基本原理。 腾出的空间将用于扩大其他团体的生物医学研究工作。
