This $659,728 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support the development of the BioMemBHub cyberinfrastructure. BioMemBHub is designed to advance modeling and analysis capabilities for biomembranes, proteins, peptides, and small molecules. The project will create an integrated platform consisting of seven web servers and three large databases to enable exploration of the structural and dynamic aspects of...
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...
This Project Grant award of $410,939, provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) through its Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program, supports research at Clemson University to elucidate the biophysical mechanisms of membrane protein folding and stability using advanced single-molecule force spectroscopy. The research project aims to develop new methods to study these essential cellular proteins by probing them with applied mechanical force at the single-molecule level. The findings are...
This $383,799 National Science Foundation project grant supports collaborative research to map protein-membrane interactions across molecular to cellular scales.
