This $616,401 federal 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 on enzyme recruitment and metabolic plasticity. The objective is to use biochemistry, evolution experiments, and -omics methods to investigate how cellular features impact enzyme recruitment, which is a key process enabling the evolution of new metabolic pathways. The research will leverage three model systems in E. coli to understand the genetic, biochemical, and cellular factors that facilitate enzyme recruitment during adaptive evolution. The award has a performance period from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2027 and is being executed by Florida State University's Sponsored Research Administration division.
