The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $254,919 Project Grant (CFDA 93.859 - Biomedical Research and Research Training) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to study the regulatory mechanisms that ensure accurate transmission of the genome during cell division. The research will focus on two key areas: 1) investigating how cells regulate the loading and removal of the Mini-Chromosome Maintenance (MCM) complex to prevent incomplete DNA replication, a...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $225,852 to The Leland Stanford Junior University to investigate the mechanisms that promote and ensure reliable formation of meiotic crossovers (COs) in the C. elegans experimental system. The research aims to illuminate fundamental mechanisms that direct orderly chromosome segregation and ensure faithful genome inheritance....
This $380,495.00 Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research to investigate the mechanisms and factors that promote aberrant DNA repair at meiotic double-strand breaks, leading to the formation of de novo structural variants in the germline. The research program, conducted by the Regents of the University of Michigan, will address how closely spaced DNA double-strand breaks...
