This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), provides $601,661 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to investigate how defective glycosylation impacts intestinal function in congenital disorders of glycosylation. The central goal is to determine the role of N-glycosylation of the mucin protein MUC2 in maintaining the intestinal mucus barrier and protecting against bacterial invasion and inflammation. The project will leverage a novel mouse model to (1) examine how N-glycosylation of MUC2 is required for goblet cell survival and proper mucus production, (2) determine how N-glycosylation sites impact MUC2 folding and dimerization, and (3) investigate the mechanism by which mannose therapy protects the gastrointestinal barrier. Additionally, a $54,693 sub-award to Goteborgs Universitet in Sweden will utilize their ex vivo mucus analysis expertise to characterize the impact of mannose supplementation on gastrointestinal mucus properties. The project period runs from September 15, 2024 to July 31, 2029.
