This Project Grant award, valued at $936,000.00, was provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training (CFDA 93.859) federal grant program. The goal of this project is to develop a platform called mRNADesigner, an integrated deep learning model to optimize the 5'UTR, codon usage, and 3'UTR of mRNA sequences simultaneously. This will enable users to design optimal mRNA sequences to enhance protein expression levels and...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) will support research at Northwestern University on how RNA modifications regulate translation initiation and cellular stress responses. The $440,000 award, effective August 1, 2025 through May 31, 2030, will integrate biochemistry, chemical biology, transcriptomics, and cell biology approaches to investigate how the epitranscriptome...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a $1,215,000 Project Grant (CFDA 93.859 - Biomedical Research and Research Training) to The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. The grant, effective September 1, 2024 through July 31, 2029, will support a functional analysis of arginine methylation, a common post-translational modification. The research aims to broadly understand the biological roles of arginine methylation, identify novel effector proteins that...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training federal grant program (CFDA 93.859), awarded a $675,898 Project Grant to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UT Southwestern) to conduct research on defining the modular architecture of protein intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) for a predictive understanding of biological function. The 5-year grant, starting on Sep 1, 2024, will use computational approaches, in...
This federal Project Grant award of $597,573 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) supports structural and dynamic studies of large protein and protein-nucleic acid complexes and assemblies that play key roles in human health and disease. The primary objectives are to: (1) provide atomic-resolution insights into the structure, dynamics, interactions, and function of nucleosomes and large nucleosome arrays...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), provides $812,500 in funding to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) to conduct research on RNA regulation and noncanonical translation between cell states. The research aims to map post-transcriptional regulation and the unannotated proteome, including RNA localization and modifications, to better understand how...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), provides $1,301,595.00 in funding to Yale University to conduct research on a class of recently discovered human genes called internal open reading frames (iorfs). The project aims to: 1) use long-read sequencing to identify and validate the existence of iorf-encoding alternative transcripts in human cells, 2) provide...
This federal Project Grant award of $536,250.00, provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), aims to develop computational methods that can better identify and analyze rare cell populations from single-cell transcriptomic data.
