Core facility resources and environment statement The OUHSC Laboratory for Genomics and Bioinformatics (LGB) is a university-supported core facility; the LGB is supervised by Dr. David Dyer (Director and Professor, Department of Microbiology and Immunology), and Dr. Allison Gillaspy (Associate Director and Research Assistant Professor, Department of Microbiology and Immunology). Currently, the LGB houses two ABI3730xl capillary DNA sequencers, with a combined sequencing capacity of over 1Mb of raw sequence per day. The facility also houses all of the essential robotics and ancillary equipment for a state-of-the-art genomics facility, including a Beckman Biomek NX, Biomek 2000, and Robbins Hydra 96 automated robotics workstations, thermal cyclers, a Genomic Solutions GS colony picker/microarray spotter robot, a Perkin-Elmer ScanArray Express microarray scanner, and two ABI quantitative real-time PCR machines (ABI7500 and ABI7900). The LGB also has an Informatics Support Laboratory, which houses two Dell servers, Sun V880 and Enterprise 450 servers, and several Dell servers, Ultra 10 and Sparc 5 workstations, for DNA sequence assembly, analysis and annotation, microarray data analysis and other bioinformatics needs.
