Abstract

The NMR equipment will be installed at The Multiuser Center for Biomolecular Innovation, a multiuser facility established at UNESP - São José do Rio Preto. The Center, housed in a dedicated building of 640 m2 (financed by UNESP) is located near the Department of Physics. This center will provide the experimental and technical support to conduct a wide range of experiments in structural biology ranging from protein expression, purification, crystallization and structure determination (NMR Spectroscopy, SAXS and Protein Crystallography). Since this equipment will be utilized for the study of a wide range of molecules, the configuration of the two NMR spectrometers acquired in the FAPESP Multiuser Equipment Program was chosen after consulting the potential users. The 600 MHz spectrometer and Cryo platform is suited for the study of the conformations and interactions of macromolecules in solution whereas, the 400 MHz spectrometer is suited for solid state studies such as membrane-peptides interactions and also for the study of small organic molecules. The equipment acquired through earlier FAPESP programs for robotic crystallization, protein crystallography and small-angle X-ray scattering will be integrated into this center. Additionally, as a means of supporting this center, UNESP is hiring a NMR research scientist and a technician for routine maintenance of the equipment and to provide assistance for potential users.
