This $820,246 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) supports research at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine to identify and characterize the specific proteins secreted by the ESX5 transport system in Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). The grant aims to determine how these secreted proteins contribute to TB disease pathogenesis and immunity, as well as investigate why an ESX5 mutant strain of the bacteria shows promise as a live attenuated vaccine for preventing TB in animal models. The research project will run from May 2025 through April 2030 and leverage the college's expertise in infectious disease research, translational science, and vaccine development.
