Baylor College of Medicine received a $1.92 million Project Grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) for the period June 1, 2026 through May 31, 2030. The grant supports the development of advanced technologies to detect and annotate previously hidden genomic features within intergenic regions of prokaryotic genomes, addressing significant limitations in current automatic annotation software. The project delivers three primary technological outputs: (1) a novel program for identifying protein-coding genes in prokaryotic genomes using improved gene signatures; (2) machine learning-based methods for discovering non-coding RNAs (ribonucleic acids) previously undetected in standard databases; and (3) comparative genomics approaches to clarify the functional roles of enigmatic non-coding RNAs. These technologies will improve genome annotation accuracy, enable discovery of new genomic features with potential biomedical applications including new drug targets, and democratize genome annotation capabilities across the research community by overcoming current detection limitations for ambiguous or rare genomic features.Federal Grant Award Summary
