Mission Description	THE NYSBC MISSION IS TO PROVIDE ADVANCED RESEARCH RESOURCES TO THE FACULTY OF NYSBC'S 9 MEMBER INSTITUTIONS IN THREE KEY AREAS OF STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY: NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTROSCOPY; CRYOELECTRON MICROSCOPY; AND X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY. THESE RESOURCES SERVE MORE THAN 100 PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS. IN ADDITION, THE NYSBC SERVES ITS MEMBER INSTITUTIONS BY OFFERING ACCREDITED ACADEMIC COURSES AND INFORMAL SEMINARS; AND BY DEVELOPING MULTI-INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH COLLABORATIONS.	MissionDescription

Description	SEE SCHEDULE ONYSBC PROVIDES ACCESS TO HIGH-FIELD NUCLEAR MAGNETIC RESONANCE (NMR) SPECTROSCOPY TO FACULTY FROM ITS NINE AFFILIATED INSTITUTIONS. THE NMR FACILITY INSTRUMENTATION INCLUDES 9 NMR SPECTROMETERS: 2 @ 900 MHZ; 3 @ 800 MHZ; AND 1 EACH @ 750, 700, 600 AND 500 MHZ. THE INSTRUMENTS OPERATE 24 HRS/DAY, 7 DAYS/WEEK AND ON AVERAGE WERE EACH AVAILABLE 330 DAYS IN 2012. INSTALLATION OF A 10TH NMR INSTRUMENT, A 600 MHZ DYNAMIC NUCLEAR POLARIZATION SOLID STATE NMR (DNP-NMR), WAS BEGUN IN THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2012 AND IS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED IN 2013. THESE RESOURCES ALLOW RESEARCHERS TO DETERMINE THE STRUCTURE OF PROTEINS IN SOLUTION AT ATOMIC RESOLUTION, DATA THAT PROVIDES INSIGHT INTO THE FUNCTIONAL PROPERTIES OF THE PROTEINS. IN 2012, 38 PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS FROM MEMBER INSTITUTIONS AND 1 FROM NIH NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF ALLERGY AND INFECTIOUS DISEASES AND THEIR STAFF MEMBERS USED THESE INSTRUMENTS. DATA COLLECTED WITH THESE INSTRUMENTS PRODUCED 30 PUBLICATIONS IN EMINENT SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS. THE CENTER ALSO CONDUCTED SEVERAL NMR COURSES TO TEACH ADVANCED NMR TECHNIQUES TO GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWS FROM THE AFFILIATED INSTITUTIONS. IN 2012, 17 STUDENTS PARTICIPATED IN THE NMR SPECTROSCOPY OF MACROMOLECULES COURSE AND 16 STUDENTS IN THE NMR TRAINING SHORT COURSE.	Description

Description	SEE SCHEDULE ORESEARCH CONDUCTED AT THE CRYOELECTRON MICROSCOPY FACILITY IS AIMED AT DETERMINING THE FUNCTION OF MACROMOLECULES FROM THEIR OBSERVED STRUCTURES. LOWER RESOLUTION IMAGING IS USED TO BRIDGE THE GAP BETWEEN THE STRUCTURES PRODUCED FROM LIGHT MICROSCOPY IMAGING AND THE ATOMIC RESOLUTION STRUCTURES DETERMINED BY OTHER MEANS SUCH AS NMR AND X-RAY DIFFRACTION. THE FACILITY HAS FOUR ELECTRON MICROSCOPES: 1 @ 120KV, 2 @ 200 KV, 1 @ 300 KV, AS WELL AS A DUAL-BEAM FOCUSED ION BEAM SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE. THREE PERMANENT STAFF MEMBERS PROVIDE TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS OF MACROMOLECULES AND MAINTAIN THE INSTRUMENTS. IN 2012, THE CRYOELECTRON MICROSCOPY FACILITY SERVED 31 PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS FROM AFFILIATED INSTITUTIONS AND THEIR STAFF MEMBERS. THIS WORK RESULTED IN 8,585 HOURS OF MICROSCOPE TIME USED IN 822 SESSIONS. THE CENTER HELD ITS ANNUAL CRYO-EM COURSE TO TEACH ADVANCED ELECTRON MICROSCOPY TECHNIQUES TO GRADUATE STUDENTS AND POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWS. THE CEM FACILITY HOSTED THE TEMIMPS ANNUAL MEETING IN MAY, 2012. THE CEM FACILITY HOSTS REGULAR SCIENTIFIC SEMINARS AND DISCUSSIONS TO ENABLE IT TO REMAIN ON THE PULSE OF ONGOING ACTIVITIES IN THE FIELD. EIGHT (8) PUBLICATIONS RESULTED FROM RESEARCH IN THE CEM FACILITY IN 2012.	Description

Description	SEE SCHEDULE ONYSBC HAS X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY RESOURCES AT THE NATIONAL SYNCHROTRON LIGHT SOURCE (NSLS) FACILITY AT BROOKHAVEN NATIONAL LABORATORY ON LONG ISLAND AND AT ITS MAIN FACILITY IN NEW YORK CITY. TWO EXPERIMENTAL STATIONS, "BEAMLINES", X4A AND X4C, ARE OPERATED AT NSLS FOR THE BENEFIT OF NYSBC SCIENTISTS, INCLUDING USERS FROM THE NORTHEAST STRUCTURAL GENOMICS CENTER (NESG) AND THE NEW YORK CENTER FOR MEMBRANE PROTEIN STUDY (NYCOMPS), BOTH OF WHICH ARE FUNDED BY THE NIH PROTEIN STRUCTURE INITIATIVE. THE BEAMLINES ALSO SERVE GENERAL USERS AT THE SYNCHROTRON FACILITY. THE RESEARCH GOAL IS TO UNDERSTAND BIOCHEMICAL AND CELLULAR FUNCTIONS OF BIOLOGICAL MACROMOLECULES. IN 2012, X4A DELIVERED 3,696 HOURS (98 SESSIONS) OF X-RAY BEAM, AND X4C DELIVERED 2,392 HOURS (77 SESSIONS) OF X-RAY BEAM. TWENTY-SIX (26) PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATORS WERE SERVED. PRODUCTIVITY IS MEASURED BY THE NUMBER OF PUBLICATIONS AND THE NUMBER OF STRUCTURE DEPOSITS INTO THE PROTEIN DATA BANK (PDB). IN 2012, THERE WERE 24 PUBLICATIONS FROM X4A AND 16 PUBLICATIONS FROM X4C. THERE WERE 26 PDB DEPOSITS FROM X4A AND 28 FROM X4C FOR 2012. A SECOND HOME-SOURCE DETECTOR SYSTEM WAS ADDED TO THE X-RAY FACILITY AT THE NYSBC - NEW YORK CITY LOCATION IN 2010. THE TWO SYSTEMS ARE USED FOR SCREENING AND FOR DIFFRACTION CHARACTERIZATION OF CRYSTALS GROWN AT NYSBC.	Description

Description	NYSBC COMPLETED A 5-YEAR GRANT IN 2010 FUNDED BY THE NIH'S PROTEIN STRUCTURE INITIATIVE. THE RESEARCH SOLVED 10 NOVEL STRUCTURES, MANY OF WHICH WERE PUBLISHED IN HIGHLY RANKED JOURNALS, SUCH AS "NATURE". AS A RESULT OF THESE ACCOMPLISHMENTS, NYSBC WAS AWARDED (IN 2010) TWO NEW 5-YEAR NIGMS PROTEIN STRUCTURE INITIATIVE GRANTS: THE NEW YORK CONSORTIUM ON MEMBRANE PROTEIN STRUCTURE (NYCOMPS) AND THE TRANSCONTINENTAL EM INITIATIVE FOR MEMBRANE PROTEIN STRUCTURE (TEMIMPS). THESE TWO AWARDS WILL SUPPORT RESEARCH TOWARDS STRUCTURE DETERMINATION OF INTEGRAL MEMBRANE PROTEINS, UTILIZING X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC AND CYROELECTRON MICROSCOPY APPROACHES, RESPECTIVELY.SINCE 2010, NYCOMPS AND TEMIMPS MEMBER LABORATORIES HAVE PUBLISHED MORE THAN 14 PAPERS DESCRIBING NOVEL INTEGRAL MEMBRANE PROTEIN STRUCTURES SOLVED BY X-RAY DIFFRACTION AND CRYOELECTRON MICROSCOPY, INCLUDING SIX THAT APPEARED IN "NATURE". NYCOMPS AND TEMIMPS MEMBER LABORATORIES ALSO PUBLISHED MORE THAN 16 PAPERS DESCRIBING ADVANCEMENTS IN METHODOLOGY AND TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT. SUCH TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENTS ASSIST OUR OWN WORK AND ARE BENEFICIAL TO THE PROGRESS OF STRUCTURAL BIOLOGY AS A WHOLE. FOR EXAMPLE, TWO PAPERS DESCRIBING PROTEIN STRUCTURES SOLVED BY X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY WERE PUBLISHED AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE METHODOLOGIES DEVELOPED BY NYCOMPS MEMBER LABS.	Description
