Instrumentation for Research in Molecular Biology and Optical Spectroscopy

该提案要求拨款购买一台荧光光谱仪、一台超离心机和一台快速蛋白质液相色谱系统，这些系统将安置在华盛顿大学化学系的一个共用的分子生物学和光谱学仪器设施中。该设施将由化学系和生物系的研究小组共享。共享的仪器将提供荧光光谱，DNA和蛋白质的分离和纯化，以及生物能量学研究中生物活性酶复合物的分离的主要功能。调查人员是富有成效的，有可靠的记录。建议使用Support。

This proposal requests funds to purchase a spectrofluorometer, an ultracentrifuge, and a fast protein liquid chromatography system to be housed in a shared molecular biology and optical spectroscopy instrument facility in the Chemistry Department at Washington University. The facility will be shared by research groups in the Chemistry and Biology Departments. The shared instruments will provide the primary functions of fluorescence spectroscopy, isolation and purification of DNA and proteins, and isolation of biologically active enzyme complexes for studies in bioenergetics. The investigators are productive, with proven track records. Support is recommended.
