This $291,710 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program supports an integrative structural and functional study to dissect the regulatory mechanisms of ciliary motility. The project aims to enhance the understanding of motile cilia and flagella, cellular structures responsible for the locomotion of many single-celled eukaryotes and the movement of fluids in multi-cellular organisms. The study will focus on investigating the...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Molecular and Cellular Biosciences awarded a $123,956 Project Grant to New Mexico State University (NMSU) through the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to support a 3-year research project. The project will probe the role of the small GTPase Rap1 protein in the mechanisms that drive morphogenesis - the changes in cell and tissue shape and arrangement during development. The goals are for the Principal Investigator to learn and apply...
This $448,150 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) aims to develop a DNA-based toolbox for the rapid and precise modulation of cell membrane protein-protein interactions (PPIs). The goal is to establish a modular approach using antibodies and aptamers to enable targeted DNA barcoding of cell membrane proteins, particularly receptor tyrosine kinases. This will allow for the controlled stabilization of specific PPI pairs on living...
