Specialized Centers for the Protein Structure Initiative: The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) and the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR) encourage applications for cooperative agreements to support specialized structural genomics research centers for methodology and technology development and new ideas and approaches for protein production and structure determination for classes of challenging proteins. These specialized centers will form one component of the Protein Structure Initiative (PSI) Research Network, the integrated second, or production, phase of the PSI (PSI- 2). They will focus on challenging proteins that are not currently amenable to high throughput and therefore represent major bottlenecks of the structural genomics pipeline. These classes of proteins include, but are not limited to, membrane proteins, small protein complexes, and proteins from human and other higher eukaryotes. The specialized centers will also be required to produce and determine the structure of significant numbers of these proteins, especially in the later years of the project.
