A team of researchers with expertise in iron nutrition, bacterial pathogen responses, cellular biology,...
This Project Grant award from the Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences of the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund research at Michigan State University (MSU) to investigate the molecular mechanisms regulating early root growth in plants in response to phosphate (P) deficiency. The key objectives of this $907,847 award, with a period of performance from June 2024 to May 2027, are to: 1) determine the transcriptional and...
This $263,431 project grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program will support collaborative research at California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc. to study soybean's signaling responses to phosphate and iron deficiency. The objective is to apply quantitative phosphoproteomics techniques to identify the differentially phosphorylated proteins that regulate how soybeans sense and respond to these nutrient stresses. This research aims to bridge...
This $450,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports research to decipher the mechanisms of iron acquisition and accumulation in the underutilized ancient crop tef (Eragrostis tef) at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNC-G). The overarching goal is to identify novel iron transport genes in tef that enable the plant to accumulate high levels of bioavailable iron in its grains, which could help address global...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) project grant of $1,117,707 awarded to the University of South Carolina aims to better understand how organisms integrate the essential metal iron with core metabolic pathways. The project will use E. coli as a model organism to examine the molecular details of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster formation and trafficking, including the role of monothiol glutaredoxins in this process and their interactions with proteins...
