This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. As over half of the INBRE pilot projects require mass spectrometry in some form, a core facility providing mass spectrometry services has been established. Because INBRE alone could not create or support such a facility, more than 10 other entities within the University of New Mexico system contributed towards the purchase of instrumentation and the development of the facility. A Ph.D. level manager has been hired and began service in April 2005. Instrumentation totaling approximately $750,000 was purchased and installed in early 2005. The facility will provide exact mass analyses of organic synthesis products, identification of proteins, characterization of proteins and peptides by mass, and other proteomics applications to INBRE and non-INBRE members. The facility is under the supervision of a PhD mass spectrometrist and an expert in the maintenance and repair of research-grade instrumentation. This creation of this facility will be a substantial improvement in the biomedical research infrastructure in the State of New Mexico and a significant improvement in biomedical research that requires mass spectrometry.

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。由于一半以上的INBRE试点项目需要某种形式的质谱分析，因此建立了一个提供质谱分析服务的核心设施。由于仅靠INBRE无法建立或支持这样一个设施，新墨西哥大学系统内的10多个其他实体为购买仪器和发展该设施作出了贡献。聘请了一名博士级经理，并于2005年4月开始服务。2005年初购买并安装了总计约75万美元的仪器。该设施将为INBRE和非INBRE成员提供有机合成产品的精确质量分析、蛋白质鉴定、蛋白质和肽的质量表征以及其他蛋白质组学应用。该设施由一位博士质谱师和一位研究级仪器维护和维修专家监督。这一设施的建立将是新墨西哥州生物医学研究基础设施的重大改进，也是需要质谱分析的生物医学研究的重大改进。
