This two-year, $600,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) will support the development of a new antibody and sequencing-based strategy to comprehensively map and monitor dynamic protein interaction networks at high-throughput and single complex resolution. Specifically, the grantee, Columbia University, aims to barcode antibodies to uniquely identify up to hundreds of target proteins and employ a combinatorial barcoding split-pool...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $740,797 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074) to the Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to develop and test new methodologies for the rational design of minimalistic light-switchable single-domain proteins. The goal is to engineer these proteins to bind specifically to target proteins in only one photoswitchable chromophore state, allowing for precise spatial and temporal control...
This $383,799 National Science Foundation project grant supports collaborative research to map protein-membrane interactions across molecular to cellular scales. Funded under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), the research aims to better understand how integral membrane proteins and surrounding phospholipid membranes work together to enable cellular processes. The University of Arizona will conduct multiscale modeling from molecular dynamics simulations of single protein-membrane...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) is focused on developing innovative targeted protein degradation technologies using DNA nanotechnology. The $313,852 award to Arizona State University is aimed at creating a programmable and conditional proteolysis targeting chimera (PROTAC) system enabled by DNA nanostructures. The key objectives are to: 1) optimize the programmability of a...
This federal Project Grant award in the amount of $242,103 was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Biological Sciences (CFDA 47.074) program. The grant will support research by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to investigate how proteins and lipids coordinate the formation and function of membrane-associated condensates at the cell surface. The research aims to advance the understanding of how cells organize their surfaces, with potential implications for...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the CFDA program "Biological Sciences" (47.074) is awarded to Trustees of Boston University to develop and optimize optogenetic tools for selecting bacterial cells based on dynamic, time-varying traits. The $796,158 award, effective August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2026, supports the researchers in creating light-inducible genetic constructs that trigger antibiotic resistance, enabling the isolation of bacteria exhibiting...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), provides $357,033 to North Dakota State University (NDSU) from August 15, 2023 to July 31, 2026 to support research on protein manipulation and engineering using an electronic biochemical approach. The project aims to develop a single-molecule manipulation technique to study the dynamics of protein-protein interactions, which is critical for understanding the causes of diseases related to...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) provides $526,873 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside to computationally investigate the mechanisms of "molecular glues" that mediate protein-protein associations and the effects of protein co-localization on enhancing overall protein function. The overarching goals are to computationally guide the design of molecular glues and protein...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $118,904 to The Regents of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) to conduct research on signal transduction mechanisms through protein design. The research aims to use protein design techniques to generate and engineer modular signaling protein subdomains, particularly focusing on bacterial histidine kinases, in order to...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $299,772 EAGER (Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research) grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to Washington State University (WSU) to develop new molecular tools for identifying protein-protein interactions within specific cellular compartments in plant cells. The project, titled "TOOLS4CELLS: Bimolecular Proximity Tagging", aims to close the gap in existing methods by creating split enzyme versions that can map...
