NIH grant awarded to University of California, Berkeley Lab for rapid macromolecular crystallography data collection support, involving advanced beamline technology and automated data collection to assist NIH investigators.
Description
Technology Operations Core 1 (TOC1) of the ALS-ENABLE resource supports rapid macromolecular crystallography diffraction data collection. It involves collaboration among the Berkeley Center for Structural Biology, the Molecular Biology Consortium, and the University of California at San Francisco. The facility includes eight beamlines capable of addressing all structural biology projects, with options for remote access, automated data collection, and collaborative crystallography. The program aims to provide NIH investigators with quick access to diffraction data, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, utilizing automated pipelines and expert support.
