The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $694,875 Project Grant under the Biomedical Research and Research Training (CFDA 93.859) federal grant program to Trustees of Boston University (Boston University Medical Campus). The grant, with a project period from February 1, 2025 to January 31, 2030, will support research to understand the molecular mechanisms that impart plasticity to G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) and heterotrimeric G protein signaling. The research aims to reveal new mechanisms underlying GPCR-independent G protein signaling, develop innovative optical biosensor tools to measure GPCR signaling activity, and investigate the physiological importance of these signaling processes. This work has broad implications for advancing the understanding of fundamental cellular communication mechanisms and their potential applications in biology and medicine.
