This Project Grant award of $702,560.00 from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173) supports research into the mechanisms of gustatory receptor (GR) structure and function, particularly the GR43A family of sugar receptors, in invertebrates. The primary objectives are to: 1) probe the mechanisms controlling ligand sensitivity and specificity in the GR43A family through...
This Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders, under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), provides $405,048.70 in funding to Rockefeller University. The grant supports research to elucidate the structural determinants of odor specificity in insect olfactory receptors in order to gain fundamental insights into sensory processing of olfactory information in insects....
The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year, $138,000 Project Grant to support research titled "Ovposition-Relevant Gustatory Receptor Evolution as a Missing Link Governing Insect-Host Plant Specialization." The grant falls under the Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), which aims to promote progress in the biological sciences and strengthen the national scientific enterprise through increasing scientific knowledge and understanding of major problems...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) Project Grant award of $750,000 from July 15, 2024 to June 30, 2028 will support research conducted by the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) to investigate how an insect's hunger state affects its sense of smell and navigational decision-making. The project aims to enhance understanding of how hunger-related signaling, such as insulin, modulates the activity of key inhibitory neurons in the insect brain to...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859), supports research to investigate the role of membrane dynamics in cell surface glycan recognition. The $382,500 award, effective from January 1, 2025 to December 31, 2029, will enable the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (Tees) to: Explore how the spatial organization of glycan ligands on cell membranes influences...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $390,000.00 to Georgia State University Research Foundation Inc. to develop a versatile, small molecule-based platform to map the "reader proteins" of glycosylation. The platform will be used to study protein-carbohydrate interactions, with a focus on critical glycosylation processes like sialylation and core fucosylation. The...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), under the Research Related to Deafness and Communication Disorders program (CFDA 93.173), provides $194,375.00 to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) from May 1, 2025 to April 30, 2027 to investigate the cellular and molecular basis for detection of osmolality in the insect taste system. The key objectives are to: 1) Define the behavioral and cellular basis for...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $444,362 Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to the University of Vermont & State Agricultural College, to be completed by April 30, 2027. This research project aims to investigate amino acid taste coding mechanisms and modulation in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. The primary objectives are to: 1) identify physiological factors that modulate amino acid taste response, 2) uncover the repertoire of cells and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) will support research on how N-glycosylation regulates the function and activity of the GRP94 chaperone protein. The $388,000 award to the Hauptman Woodward Medical Research Institute, Inc. will fund a 4-year project from September 1, 2024 to August 31, 2028. The research aims to determine how differential glycosylation of GRP94 alters its...
