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 $659,591 to the University of Arizona to conduct research on the TORC1 signaling network in yeast. The key objectives are to: (1) determine how TORC1 is driven into an intermediate signaling state in poor nutrient conditions, (2) understand how TORC1 signaling is altered as conditions worsen to slow growth and tune metabolism, and (3) identify the missing layers of TORC1 regulation that push cells into quiescence/arrest during complete starvation. The research aims to develop a systems-level model of TORC1 signaling that can serve as a paradigm for future studies of human TORC1 signaling, while also providing insights to support the development of new antifungal compounds. The project will run from July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2030.
