The research aims to define the co-transcriptional assembly events and transitions towards stable post-transcriptional nucleolar assembly intermediates of ribosomal subunits, leveraging advanced...
- The University of Pennsylvania was awarded a $443,806 Project Grant by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). The grant supports fundamental scientific research investigating the collective impacts and regulatory mechanisms of multiple enzyme-mediated modifications across distinct RNA species, particularly in the areas of mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA. The research aims to uncover the extent of crosstalk in...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), awarded a $431,656 Project Grant to the University of Massachusetts to elucidate the function of ribonucleoprotein (RNP) condensates in living cells. The research aims to develop novel methods to accurately identify the RNA-binding proteins that regulate the formation and disassembly of RNP condensates, which play a crucial role in cellular function and disease...
- The federal Project Grant award of $412,525.00 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) supports research in the Hundley Lab at Indiana University. The research aims to define the molecular mechanisms that regulate ADAR target recognition and RNA editing, which are essential functions of human ADAR proteins that are dysregulated in over 35 human diseases. The proposed work focuses on understanding...
- The federal Project Grant award of $673,600.00 from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) under the Discovery and Applied Research for Technological Innovations to Improve Human Health program (CFDA 93.286) aims to develop an RNA-based sensor that can detect changes in both mRNA and miRNA within living cells and mouse models. The objective is to create a programmable, synthetic biology tool that can identify diseased cells based on their RNA profiles and trigger...
- This federal Project Grant award of $1,968,575.00 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), is focused on developing computational approaches and machine learning methods to predict DNA-binding specificities for transcription factor proteins and the functional effects of genetic variants within proteins. The overarching goal is to gain a predictive understanding of proteins, their interactions,...
- This federal Project Grant award of $125,000 was provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to The Regents of the University of Colorado. The project, titled "Intermolecular RNA-RNA Interactions in Stress Granule Regulation and Disease," aims to determine how the stress granule scaffolding protein G3BP1 facilitates the formation of intermolecular RNA-RNA interactions, identify the...
This federal Project Grant award of $459,250.00, provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), supports research to develop a systematic approach for detecting regulatory RNAs and their functional motifs based on RNA-protein interactions. The key research objectives include: This research, conducted by the Lieber Institute for Brain Development, aims to enhance the systematic understanding of RNA-centric mechanisms of gene regulation in chromatin, which is a major focus of modern RNA research. The project period runs from September 1, 2025 to May 31, 2030.
