This federal Project Grant award of $440,454 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) will support a research project focused on epithelial cell mechanobiology in mechanically heterogeneous microenvironments. The primary objectives are to study how epithelial cells sense and respond to extracellular wounds, whether epithelial migration can occur with lower forces by modifying extracellular matrix...
This $307,015 federal Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program to the University of Utah aims to investigate the mechanisms regulating the lipid droplet proteome. The research will use multiscale simulations and collaborative experiments to understand how proteins selectively target and interact with lipid droplets in response to varying metabolic conditions. Findings from this work could provide insights to guide future therapeutic interventions for...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) provides $1,130,886 to The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center to conduct research on the multimodal regulation of intracellular lipid surveillance. The five-year research project aims to define the molecular mechanisms underlying the lifecycle of the nuclear hormone receptor NHR-49, which plays a key role in lipid sensing and...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) has awarded a $1,189,314 Project Grant under the Biomedical Research and Research Training Program (CFDA 93.859) to The Washington University to elucidate the roles of protein disaggregases and develop enhanced disaggregases to counter diverse protein-misfolding disorders. The five-year project, beginning on September 1, 2024, will focus on two primary themes: (1) developing finely-tuned variants of the Hsp104 disaggregase and using them...
