DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposal requests funds to purchase an AB 3730XL DNA sequencer, to replace two aging AB 377 instruments. It would be housed in the USC/Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center Microchemistry Core Laboratory, which offers a DNA sequencing service to peer-reviewed investigators. Acquisition of this new instrument will ensure that researchers at the University of Southern California have ready access to state-of-the-art DNA sequencing. This is essential in their endeavors to study fundamental mechanisms such as gene regulation, signal transduction, and DNA repair in normal and neoplastic cells. In addition, it will also advance the understanding of the genetic basis of disease, the design of vaccines and the development of therapies in the treatment of cancer, graft rejection and autoimmunity.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案要求资金购买AB 3730 XL DNA测序仪，以取代两个老化的AB 377仪器。它将被安置在南加州大学/诺里斯综合癌症中心微量化学核心实验室，该实验室为同行评审的研究人员提供DNA测序服务。购买这台新仪器将确保南加州大学的研究人员能够随时获得最先进的DNA测序。这对于他们研究正常和肿瘤细胞中的基因调控、信号转导和DNA修复等基本机制至关重要。此外，它还将促进对疾病遗传基础的理解，疫苗的设计以及癌症治疗，移植排斥和自身免疫治疗的发展。
