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 University of Texas at El Paso proposes continuing support for a multi-user research facility specializing in the separation and characterization of biomolecules, the molecular biology core facility. This facility maintains equipment such as centrifuges, ultracentrifuges, gamma and scintillation counters, HPLC with numerous detectors, capillary electrophoresis, UV/vis spectrophotometers, microplate readers and many other items of shared equipment. Numerous other resources are available as well to document and analyze experimental data collected using these instruments. Currently, this core is also equipped for the synthesis and amplification of nucleic acids. These capabilities may be reorganized to better serve the needs of users as a result of possible relocation and discussions with affected user groups. The purpose of this facility is to provide the broadest possible group of users with access to well maintained, state of the art, equipment. Each of two rooms housing these instruments is entered more than 1000 times per month by more than 100 individual users, representing more than 15 research groups. This facility will be staffed by a full-time coordinator who will be responsible for routine maintenance, scheduling preventative maintenance by factory representatives, user orientation and assistance as well as account and inventory maintenance. Partial salary will be provided to the core director for ongoing oversight of these activities

该子项目是利用 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者 (PI) 可能已从另一个 NIH 来源获得主要资金，因此可以在其他 CRISP 条目中出现。列出的机构是中心的机构，不一定是研究者的机构。德克萨斯大学埃尔帕索分校提议继续支持专门从事生物分子分离和表征的多用户研究设施，即分子生物学核心设施。该设施拥有离心机、超速离心机、伽马计数器和闪烁计数器、带有众多检测器的 HPLC、毛细管电泳、紫外/可见分光光度计、酶标仪和许多其他共享设备等设备。还可以使用许多其他资源来记录和分析使用这些仪器收集的实验数据。目前，该核心还配备用于核酸的合成和扩增。由于可能的重新定位以及与受影响的用户组的讨论，这些功能可能会被重新组织，以更好地满足用户的需求。该设施的目的是为尽可能广泛的用户群体提供维护良好、最先进的设备。每个装有这些仪器的两个房间每月都会有超过 100 名个人用户进入 1000 多次，代表超过 15 个研究小组。该设施将配备一名全职协调员，负责日常维护、安排工厂代表的预防性维护、用户指导和协助以及账户和库存维护。将向核心董事提供部分工资，以持续监督这些活动
