This Project Grant award in the amount of $1,130,886.00 was issued by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859). The grant will fund research at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center on the molecular mechanisms underlying intracellular lipid sensing and metabolic regulation. Specifically, the project aims to define how the nuclear hormone receptor NHR-49 is activated and attenuated in response to cellular lipid depletion, including investigating the cofactors and post-translational modifications that facilitate NHR-49's nucleocytoplasmic shuttling, transcriptional activation, and degradation. This research is expected to provide fundamental insights into the regulation of lipid homeostasis, which has implications for understanding metabolic disorders. The grant period runs from July 5, 2024 to April 30, 2028.
