CORE--X RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

X射线结晶学有着悠久的历史，一直是癌症研究中心的重要研究内容。它提供最先进的X射线衍射仪(四个Rigaku旋转阳极X射线发生器、三个西门子多丝区域探测器、一个MacScience衍射图像处理器、一个Rigaku R轴IIc和一个Rigaku R轴IV)和计算/图形(SGI Power Onyx、两个SGI最大影响图形站、新的Origin 200计算机服务器和DEC Alpha 2200服务器)。该设施支持七名癌症中心结晶学家的工作，他们与癌症中心的教职员工在其他项目中有多次合作。在过去的一年里，该机构为8个项目中的512名教职员工提供了计算机/图形支持。该设施位于NASF癌症中心的6500个空间中，以及用于Power Onyx链接的大屏幕三维立体音响项目的1200个“虚拟”影院。该设施是癌症中心结构生物学项目的一个组成部分，重点是结构：功能关系、分子建模和药物设计。

The X-ray Crystallography has had a long history has an important research element of the Cancer Center. It provides state-of-the-art x-ray diffraction instrumentation (four Rigaku rotating anode x-ray generators, three Siemans Multi-wire area detectors, one MacScience diffraction image processor, a Rigaku R-axis IIc, and a Rigaku R-axis IV) and computation/graphics (SGI Power Onyx, two SGI Maximum Impact graphic stations, a new Origin 200 compute server and a DEC Alpha 2200 server). The facility supports the work of seven Cancer Center crystallographers who have multiple collaborations with Cancer Center faculty in other programs. The facility provided computer/graphic support to 512 faculty in 8 programs this past year. The facility is housed in 6,500 NASF of Cancer Center space as well as 1,200 "virtual" theater for Power Onyx-linked large screen three-dimensional stereo project. The facility is an integral component of the Cancer Center's Structural Biology Program with an emphasis on structure: function relationships, molecular modeling and drug design.
