This Project Grant award of $1,946,207 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), will enable researchers at Stanford University to generate comprehensive maps of variant effects for genes involved in monogenic diabetes. The goal is to deliver precision diagnostics to enable precision medicine for diabetes. Specifically, the researchers will:

  1. Quantitatively characterize the functional enzymatic signatures across thousands of glucokinase (GCK) variants using high-throughput microfluidic enzyme kinetics.
  2. Determine hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 alpha (HNF1A) transcription factor function at scale using simultaneous transcription factor affinity measurements via microfluidic protein arrays, coupled with a high-throughput pooled screen for insulin secretion in human beta cells.
  3. Work with international leaders in monogenic diabetes to integrate the variant maps into clinical diagnostics through variant curation and improved prediction models.

The award has an initial project period from September 1, 2024 to May 31, 2029.
