This federal Project Grant award of $1,542,717.00 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research to investigate the recognition and cleavage of atypical polyubiquitin chains and ubiquitinated proteins by deubiquitinases (DUBs). The research aims to identify and characterize reader proteins of branched ubiquitin chains and understand their roles in mitophagy and receptor endocytosis. The new chemical biology tools developed, particularly novel activity-based DUB probes, will serve to unveil new biological targets and functions in the ubiquitin system and provide new ways of identifying the reader and eraser proteins of ubiquitin signals. The award is effective from August 1, 2024 through May 31, 2029.
