| The New York Structural Biology Center (NYSBC) is a state-of-the-art research center being developed cooperatively by a consortium of several institutions including AECOM. The Center, located at 133rd and Convent Avenue on the City College Campus, houses the largest and most advanced cluster of high-field research magnets (NMRs) in the United States. The NYSBC has a 500MHz, a 600MHz, a 700MHz, a wide-bore 750MHz (for NMR of solids), three 800MHz and two 900MHz. All of the instruments are equipped with cryogenic probes and are especially useful for NMR studies of large macromolecules and complexes (> 35kD). Each member institution accumulates credits of NMR time that be used to allocate time on the NYSBC instrumentation. Approximately every three months, a schedule is created in which each NMR instrument is allocated to an institution for a period of seven days starting on Tuesdays. Currently, AECOM has requested full access to the high field instruments and receives approximately four to six weeks of high field NMR time during each cycle. |
