This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) supports research to elucidate the molecular machinery underlying lipid and energy storage in lipid droplets within eukaryotic cells. The $609,493 award, granted on June 1, 2025, will fund a 5-year project conducted by the Sloan-Kettering Institute for Cancer Research in New York. Key objectives include: 1) elucidating the structure, biochemical function, and cell biological roles of the DGAT2 enzyme involved in triacylglycerol synthesis; 2) obtaining the structure of the lipid droplet assembly complex (LDAC) and using biochemical and simulation studies to understand how it facilitates lipid droplet formation; and 3) investigating the functional role of the LD modifier protein FIT2 in providing CoA for mitochondrial metabolism. This research aims to advance the fundamental understanding of cellular lipid storage mechanisms and their implications for diseases involving altered lipid metabolism.
