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. The purpose of this study is to evaluate 14 BM-C for the purpose of collecting x-ray patterns from fibrous biological systems. At present, 18 ID is the only beamline at the APS that routinely offers wide-angle fiber diffraction. While many of these kinds of samples benefit from the high beam quality of doubly focussed undulator radiation, these experiments are not flux limited and a large fraction of them may well be adequately done on an appropriately configured bending magnet line. If high quality wide angle fiber patterns can be taken of 14 BM-C this would provide a significant increase in capacity for this kind of experiment at the APS. Furthermore, a class of biomedically important problems that can be studied by fiber diffraction is amyloidosis and prion diseases. Many of these samples are biohazardous and need to be studied under Biosafety level 2 and/or 3 conditions. We will also evaluate the setup for connective tissue studies. Type II collagen in situ in lamprey notochord will be mounted in sealed (perspex/mica) fibre sample holders. Type I collagen in situ in rat tail tendon will be mounted in sealed (perspex/mica) fiber sample holders.Collagen short peptide cyrstals will be mounted in sealed capillaries. Patterns will be compared to those taken on 18ID. All samples will studied at room temperature and are non-hazardous. We anticipate that it would take three shifts to complete the plant virus studies and three additional shifts for the connective tissue studies. We estimate that it may take three shifts in addition to work out the best experimental configuration for these studies.

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 本研究的目的是评估14个BM-C，以收集纤维生物系统的X射线模式。目前，18 ID是APS唯一一条常规提供广角光纤衍射的光束线。虽然这些种类的样品中的许多受益于双聚焦波荡器辐射的高光束质量，但这些实验不是通量限制的，并且它们中的大部分可以在适当配置的光波导上充分地完成。 弯曲磁力线。如果高质量的广角纤维图案可以采取14 BM-C，这将提供一个显着增加的能力，这种实验在APS。此外，一类重要的生物医学问题，可以研究纤维衍射是淀粉样变性和朊病毒疾病。这些样品中有许多是生物危害性的，需要在生物安全2级和/或3级条件下进行研究。我们还将评估结缔组织研究的设置。II型胶原蛋白在七鳃鳗脊索原位将安装在密封（有机玻璃/云母）纤维样品架。将大鼠尾腱中的I型胶原原位固定在密封的（有机玻璃/云母）纤维样品支架中。将胶原短肽固定在密封的毛细管中。将模式与18 ID上的模式进行比较。所有样品均在室温下进行研究，且无危害。我们预计完成植物病毒研究需要三个班次，结缔组织研究需要另外三个班次。我们估计，它可能需要三个班次，除了制定出这些研究的最佳实验配置。
