This $240,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will fund a postdoctoral research fellowship focused on discovering and functionally exploring nature's repurposed enzymes in specialized metabolism. The research aims to identify and characterize new enzymes that have gained novel functions through evolutionary changes, with the potential to discover useful tools for biotechnology and medicine. The fellowship will support a two-step workflow: 1) surveying protein databases and employing computational analyses to identify candidate neofunctionalized enzymes, and 2) testing these enzymes through heterologous expression, metabolomics, and biochemical/structural characterization. In addition to the research, the fellowship will involve mentoring undergraduate students and establishing a "Postdoc-in-STEM" network to support underrepresented scientists and enable interdisciplinary collaborations. The award period is from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2027.
