Currently, advances in solid state NMR now make it possible to study details of the molecular structure of fibrillar samples, underlying a host of amyloid diseases. To date, solid state NMR studies of Abeta fibrils and other large, insoluble systems by the NIDDK Solid State NMR and Biological Physics Section have relied on use of a 750 MHz instrument, shared with the solution NMR groups. This limited (33%) access to high field solid-state NMR instrument time is neither sufficient nor efficient for carrying out time-consuming data collections needed to make rapid progress in this important and increasingly time-sensitive research. Purchase of the 3-axis gradient 700 MHz NMR system will make tl1e 750 MHz instrument available full-time for solid-state NMR experiments, while offering new advanced capabilities to the solution NMR programs of the Protein NMR and Biophysical NMR Spectroscopy Sections.
