Kuhlman Biology : • Designing proteins that fold into specific structures and bind target molecules • Millions of simulations lead to the creation of a few proteins in the wet-lab • Brought to OSG’s attention by local One protein can fold in many campus research computing group that ways. This computationally was being overwhelmed designed protein switches between a zinc finger • Assistant Professor and a lab of 5 structure and a coiled-coil structure, depending on its graduate students environment. • http://www.isgtw.org/?pid=1000507 ]

Designing proteins in the Kuhlman Lab Designing proteins in the Kuhlman Lab For each protein we design, we consume about 5,000 CPU hours across 10,000 jobs,” says Kuhlman. “Adding in the structure and atom design process, we’ve consumed about 250,000 CPU hours in total so far.” ]

● 1.6 * 10^8 CPU-hours/year, 5 CPU-hours/sec ● http://www.opensciencegrid.org/Usage_Stats

Example: UJ cluster can provide ~10k CPU-hours per week right now, planned 32k

What OS G would like ... • Involvement as users:  application users at UJ making use of other OSG resources – use UJ cluster and through that develop grid-scale applications  resource provision – other OSG users use space compute capacity here ]
