A protein molecular interaction and localization facility

该提案将解决我们的质谱能力的主要差距，并帮助我们理解蛋白质相互作用和组织分布在神经科学，微生物学，免疫学和植物学等领域，以及增强我们对蛋白质分子的基本气相化学的理解。它汇集了一个非常成功的多学科团队的高调研究人员与合作的跟踪记录，并提供共享设施的成果。除了这些关键的科学成果外，该项目还将促进在一个严重短缺的技能领域（质谱法）培训几名新人员，并促进真正的跨学科技能。

This proposal will address a major gap in our mass spectrometry capabilities and aid in our understanding of protein interactions and tissue distribution in areas such as neuroscience, microbiology, immunology, and botany, as well as enhance our understanding of fundamental gas phase chemistry of protein molecules. It brings together a highly successful multidisciplinary team of high-profile researchers with a track record of collaboration and delivering outcomes from shared facilities. In addition to these key scientific outcomes this project will also facilitate the training of several new personnel in a skill area for which there is a critical shortage (mass spectrometry) and promote true cross-disciplinary skills.
