This $475,020 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), supports research to investigate the role of the N-terminus of the GATA1 transcription factor in regulating erythropoiesis. The project aims to: 1) identify the cofactors recruited by the N-terminus to regulate erythropoiesis, and 2) explore the N-terminus' role in controlling...
This Project Grant award of $949,056, provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), supports research by Northwestern University to investigate the functional roles of the DDX41 gene in the homeostasis of G-quadruplexes during erythropoiesis. The research aims to elucidate the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which DDX41 mutations contribute to the...
This Project Grant award of $1,560,024 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under CFDA 93.847 supports research on the intracellular trafficking and signaling of the metabolite heme in myeloid cells. The primary awardee, Scripps Research Institute, will leverage mouse models, chemical tools, and new mouse mutants to reveal a molecular pathway for how heme signaling regulates the differentiation and function of macrophages under normal and disease...
This federal Project Grant award of $117,000 from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) supports a systems biology research project conducted by the Regents of the University of Michigan. The key objectives are to: 1) Validate predicted transcription factor binding motifs related to the hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF1A) in areas of open chromatin using multiomics data, and 2)...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), provides $2,202,378 to the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai to conduct research on the protective role of the KLF2 gene in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). The key goals are to determine how KLF2 is regulated in diabetic conditions, how it protects against glomerular endothelial...
This federal Project Grant award, with a total funding amount of $194,616.00, was provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The award supports research to investigate the role of acetylation as a novel post-translational modification of the transcription factor MAFA, which is a critical regulator of beta-cell function. The research aims to determine how...
This federal Project Grant award of $675,660.00 was provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847). The award was granted to the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Inc. (Bidmc) to conduct research focused on understanding the regulation and requirements for coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis, and how dysregulation of CoA synthesis is related to metabolic diseases...
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) a $150,000 Project Grant under CFDA 93.847, the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program. The grant, which runs from Sep 1, 2023 to Aug 31, 2024, will fund a study to identify factors that contribute to clonal expansion and disease progression in clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). The research aims to dissect the...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), provides $199,999 to the University of Florida to develop innovative artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods to support the discovery of potent, orally available small-molecule heparanase inhibitors.

This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) under the Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research program (CFDA 93.847), supports the development of selective degradation strategies to target mutant transcription factors. The $253,500.00 award will fund experiments to design and test approaches to selectively degrade the mutant variant of the KLF1 transcription factor, which is implicated in congenital dyserythropoietic anemia. The research aims to establish an innovative blueprint for removing problematic proteins in hematologic and renal diseases caused by single-allele missense mutations in transcription factor DNA binding domains. The award period runs from September 15, 2024, to August 31, 2026.
