Target selection

As part of the NIH funded PSI-2 project, the NESG dedicates 70% of its resources to the determination of targeted families assigned by the PSI BIG group,

Throughout PSI-2, protein families proposed by the PSI BIG group have been selected by the PSI-2 large scale centers via a lottery system overseen by the
PSI BIG group.  Members of protein families selected by the BIG group are studied by the large scale centers prior to family selection and each center proposes
families that they wish to pursue.  The PSI BIG group <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"></meta><meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Generator"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Originator"></meta><link href="file:///C:\Users\kellere\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtml1\01\clip_filelist.xml" rel="File-List"></link><style><!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style>resolves conflicts where more than one large scale center <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"></meta><meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Generator"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Originator"></meta><link href="file:///C:\Users\kellere\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtml1\01\clip_filelist.xml" rel="File-List"></link><style><!-- /* Style Definitions */ p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal {mso-style-parent:""; margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";} @page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in; mso-header-margin:.5in; mso-footer-margin:.5in; mso-paper-source:0;} div.Section1 {page:Section1;} --> </style>proposes the same protein family.
