- The University of Colorado-Denver was awarded a $235,599 Project Grant from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research Federal Grant Program (CFDA 93.855). The grant supports research to study the molecular mechanisms by which the protein synaptopodin (SYNPO) promotes the intercellular spread of the bacterial pathogen Shigella flexneri. This research aims to elucidate how SYNPO enables the formation of longer actin...
- This Project Grant award for $160,954.00, provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), supports research to define the mechanisms of macrophage-specific killing of the intracellular bacterial pathogen Shigella flexneri. The research aims to better understand how macrophages, a key immune cell, restrict and eliminate this leading cause of diarrheal disease and dysentery worldwide. The work...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) provides $569,210 to the University of Colorado Boulder to conduct research on the "Mechanisms of Lipid A Modification Impacting Antimicrobial Resistance". The key focus is on understanding how certain gram-negative pathogens modify their lipid A structures to develop resistance against cationic antimicrobial...
- The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $226,641 Project Grant under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855) to the University of Colorado-Denver. The grant, awarded on December 5, 2024 with a completion date of November 30, 2026, will support research to examine how the intestinal microbiome and the pattern recognition receptor NOD2 expressed in intestinal epithelial cells impact pathogenesis of Coxsackievirus B3, an enteric virus...
- This federal Project Grant award of $2,727,148.00 from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), supports research on the interactions between bacteriophages (phages) and the Salmonella pathogen during oxidative stress. The goal is to characterize the mechanisms by which the Salmonella pathogen senses oxidative stress, and how this leads to the activation of phage-derived enzymes that inhibit the...
- This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), provides $390,000 to support research on the molecular basis of Staphylococcus aureus SPLB manipulation of the host. The research aims to: 1) identify host protein targets of S. aureus SPLB, 2) elucidate how SPLB-target interactions induce conformational changes, and 3) determine how N-terminal cleavage activates the...
- The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $204,347 Project Grant (CFDA 93.855 - Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research) to the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College to study the intracellular colonization strategies of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium within human intestinal epithelial cells and macrophages. The research aims to characterize bacterial and host transcripts during Salmonella infection, distinguish between cytosolic and...
- This federal Project Grant award for $782,871.00, provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), supports research to investigate mechanisms by which arthritogenic alphaviruses, such as chikungunya and Ross River viruses, evade CD8+ T cell-mediated immune responses. The research aims to define how type I interferon signaling restricts infection of antigen-presenting myeloid cells, limiting...
- This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.855), is funding research to investigate the mechanisms by which bacterial cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs) activate the NLRP3 inflammasome, a key innate immune signaling complex responsible for triggering inflammation. The $506,394 award, effective from January 24, 2025 through December 31, 2029, will support studies using...
- The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) awarded a $195,625 Project Grant under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research federal grant program (CFDA 93.855) to the University of Colorado Boulder. The grant supports research to structurally and functionally characterize phosphoethanolamine (PEtN) transferases, enzymes responsible for conferring resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) and the antibiotic colistin in multidrug-resistant Gram-negative...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the Allergy and Infectious Diseases Research (CFDA 93.855) program, is supporting research to investigate the role of the protein synaptopodin during bacterial infection by Shigella flexneri. The $2,637,034 award to the University of Colorado-Denver aims to examine how synaptopodin contributes to the spread of S. flexneri and other intracellular pathogens between host cells. The research project runs from August 8, 2025 to July 31, 2029 and seeks to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which synaptopodin regulates bacterial protrusion formation and intercellular spread, which is critical to the disease process.
