DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This request is for funds to purchase a nucleic acid extraction system consisting of an AutoGenFlex Star automated DNA isolation system and the AutoGen Quick-Gene 810 RNA isolation unit. The instruments will be housed, managed, and maintained by the Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI) within the IndianaCTSI Specimen Storage Facility. Biobanking has become an integral part of translational research. The rapid developments in high throughput sequencing along with novel bioinformatic analytical tools has led to an increase in the number of investigators performing novel genetic analysis. With this increase in analytical capacity, the limiting step has become the collection and isolation of nucleic acids. The equipment will facilitate health research for the CTSI member institutions: Indiana University (IU), Purdue University and the University of Notre Dame. All three members of the Indiana CTSI will share a common state-of-the-art repository that was built, in part, through a NCRR construction grant (C06-RR020128-01, 09/30/04 - 09/29/08, R.S. Fife, PI, K. Cornetta, Co-I). The facility will be housed at the IU School of Medicine. In addition to supporting individual investigators, the IU Simon Cancer Center (2P30CA082709), the National Cell Repository for Alzheimer Disease (5U24AG021886; PI: T. Foroud), the National Gene Vector Biorepository (P40 RR024928; PI K. Cornetta), and the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Tissue Bank at the IU Simon Cancer Center work closely with the Indiana CTSI repository efforts. As a result, the instrument system will have an impact on a much larger group of NIH funded investigators than those located in Indiana. The facility will serve as a recharge center for users and the service contract and reagent costs will be included in user fees. The CTSI will provide support for a technician dedicated to repository activities including DNA processing and equipment maintenance. By developing a common facility, the Indiana CTSI will facilitate sample collection and processing, promote sharing of samples, and assure compliance with international biobanking standards. The equipment requested in this proposal will improve consistency of biospecimens, increase capacity, and free up technician time for analytical work. Furthermore, the diverse group of investigators who will utilize this equipment will ensure the investment will facilitate basic and clinical research in almost every area of medicine. PROJECT NARRATIVE: Understanding the genetic basis of disease continues to foster the development of new treatments for both common and rare diseases. Automated extraction of DNA can facilitates genetic analysis, a benefit that will positively affect almost every area of clinical medicine and the capacity to provide RNA will allow Indiana investigators to pursue this rapidly expanding field. The equipment requested will improve the research for R01 funded investigators, national biobanking efforts, and Indiana CTSI investigators engaged in basic and clinical research.

描述（由申请人提供）：此请求是要购买由AutogenFlex Star自动DNA隔离系统和Autogen Quick-Gene 810 RNA隔离单元组成的核酸提取系统。这些仪器将由印第安纳州临床和转化科学研究所（CTSI）托管，管理和维护。 生物群已成为转化研究的组成部分。高通量测序以及新型生物信息学分析工具的快速发展导致进行新的遗传分析的研究人员数量增加。随着分析能力的增加，限制步骤已成为核酸的收集和分离。该设备将促进CTSI成员机构的健康研究：印第安纳大学（IU），普渡大学和巴黎大学。印第安纳州CTSI的三个成员将共享一个通用的最先进存储库，部分是通过NCRR建设拨款建造的（C06-RR020128-01，09/30/04-04-09/29/29/08，R.S. Fife，R.S. Fife，Pi，Pi，Pi，Pi，K。Cornetta，K。Cornetta，Co-i）。该设施将安置在IU医学院。除支持个别研究者外，IU Simon癌症中心（2P30CA082709），国家的全国细胞储存库（5U24AG021886; PI：T。Foroud），国家基因载体生物座位（p40 rr024928; pi k. corneta in g.corur and i ccom kom kom kom kom）西蒙癌症中心与印第安纳州CTSI存储库紧密合作。结果，仪器系统将对一组与印第安纳州的NIH资助的研究人员产生影响。该设施将作为用户充值中心，服务合同和试剂成本将包括在用户费用中。 CTSI将为专门用于存储库活动在内的技术人员提供支持，包括DNA处理和设备维护。通过开发共同的设施，印第安纳州CTSI将促进样本收集和处理，促进样品共享，并确保遵守国际生物群体标准。该提案中要求的设备将提高生物测量的一致性，增加容量，并腾出技术人员进行分析工作的时间。此外，利用此设备的多样化研究人员将确保投资几乎促进医学领域的基础和临床研究。 项目叙述：了解疾病的遗传基础继续促进针对常见疾病和稀有疾病的新疗法的发展。 DNA的自动提取可以促进遗传分析，这将对几乎每个临床医学领域的每个领域产生积极影响，提供RNA的能力将使印第安纳州的研究人员能够追求这一迅速扩展的领域。所要求的设备将改善R01资助的研究人员，国家生物群体工作以及从事基础和临床研究的Indiana CTSI研究人员的研究。
