The National Science Foundation awarded a $335,300 Project Grant to the University of Hawaii at Manoa under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to support research investigating a newly identified protein structure called the pierced lasso topology. Principal Investigator Ellinor Haglund will combine theoretical, biochemical, and genetic experiments using fruit flies to study how pierced lasso topologies can act as molecular switches to control biological activity through changes in a cell's environment. The research aims to reveal mechanistic details of how pierced lasso topology proteins fold and thread to reach biologically active states, focusing on three selected proteins involved in cell regulation, growth, and migration. Outreach integrating the topology of biological proteins with knots in everyday life and Polynesian culture is also included. The grant period is from February 1, 2022 to January 31, 2027.
