The University of Southern California was awarded a $1,599,992 project grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences. The grant is part of the NSF's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support basic research that advances understanding of major problems in the biological sciences.
Under this award, USC will conduct research from August 2021 through July 2025 to modularize and minimize the yeast transcription factor repertoire. The goal is to gain a better understanding of the fundamental biological processes that govern gene expression and regulation in single-celled organisms. Insights from this research could provide new perspectives on cellular differentiation and development across diverse organisms. The project will be performed at USC's facilities in Los Angeles.
