项目摘要

ABSTRACT An integrated Structural Biology Core will be established to enable the Research Projects’ scientists employing state-of-the-art tools for structural determinations from RNA, protein to virus and virus infected cells. This Core is made up of three Subcores including protein production, x-ray crystallography and scattering, and cryogenic electron microscopy and tomography. All the imaging and diffraction instruments are located at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory campus of Stanford University while the protein production is embedded in the ChEM-H Institute on the main campus. All of the facilities are maintained by experienced staff at SLAC under the supervision of Drs. Chiu, Hedman, and Hodgson. The Core will be staffed by specialists to assist and train the AViDD Center’s scientists in performing the structure characterizations to enable the design of novel and effective antivirals against SARS-CoV-2 and other RNA viruses of pandemic potential.

抽象的将建立一个综合的结构生物学核心，以使研究项目的科学家能够采用最先进的工具来确定 RNA、蛋白质、病毒和病毒感染细胞的结构。该核心由三个子核心组成，包括蛋白质生产、X 射线晶体学和散射，以及所有成像和衍射仪器均位于低温电子显微镜和断层扫描仪中。斯坦福大学 SLAC 国家加速器实验室校园内嵌入蛋白质生产主校区 ChEM-H 研究所的所有设施均由 SLAC 经验丰富的工作人员维护。在 Chiu、Hedman 和 Hodgson 博士的监督下，The Core 将配备专家提供协助。并培训 AViDD 中心的科学家进行结构表征，以便设计针对 SARS-CoV-2 和其他具有大流行潜力的 RNA 病毒的新型有效抗病毒药物。
