The GTL houses automated sequencers and DNA extraction equipment and provides inexpensive services to some 150 researchers in the Texas A&M community. Services available through the GTL include the following: access to MJ Research thermal cyclers discount purchase of sequencing reagents access to DNA sequencing software technical consultation ABI 3130xl Genetic Analyzer A capillary sequencer for service sequencing and DNA marker analysis $2.50/sample Real-Time PCR Systems CFX 384 and ABI 7900HT SDS Real-Time PCR machine for allelic discrimination, quantification and dissociation curve analysis Computing system DNA Sequencing Analysis and Sequencer software for sequence analysis Primer Express software to design TaqMan primers and probes Genescan, Genotyper and GeneMaper Additional equipment Genogrinder System: ChemiDoc XRS+, Gel Doc XR+ Beckman DU-640 spectrophotometer, NanoDrop ND 1000 Spectrophotometer Victor Plate Reader and Alpha Imager Mini The Laboratory for Molecular Simulation (LMS) brings molecular modeling and computational chemistry closer to the experimental scientist by offering training to both new and advanced users. Advanced modeling software is available for researchers at Texas A&M University to perform quantum calculations on small molecular or solid systems and molecular mechanics/dynamics modeling for large systems such as proteins, DNA, nanomolecules, polymers, solids, and liquids. The LMS also provides support for faculty that wish to incorporate molecular modeling in their course material. Resources available at the LMS include: - The LMS offers, free of charge, three types of workshops throughout the year: 1) Linux, 2) Molecular Modelling, and 3) Quantum Mechanics Short Course. For more information please see the workshops link to the left. Most of the programs available through the LMS are only available on Linux based machines, therefore, the Linux workshop is a pre-requisite for all other workshops. HARDWARE - The LMS has 20 SUN Ultra 20 workstations, 1 dual processor SGI Octane, 3 SGI R12000 O2's, and 4 Power Mac G5's in the computer lab in room 2109 chemistry. To obtain an account you must complete the Linux workshop or have a VERY strong
