The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) awarded a Project Grant of $422,688 to the Regents of the University of California at Riverside on August 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). This five-year award, extending through July 31, 2031, supports investigator-initiated basic research examining how the primary cilium—a cellular organelle that functions as the cell's signaling hub—integrates signaling pathways and communicates with other cellular structures. The research builds on prior proteomics work mapping ciliary protein composition across different cell types and conditions to advance understanding of how ciliary signaling mechanisms operate and how cilium dysfunction contributes to ciliopathies. The project delivers fundamental scientific research products addressing two primary research directions: (1) investigation of the mechanistic connection between cilium signaling and mitochondrial function, including protein translocation mechanisms responsive to nutrient status changes, and (2) characterization of local messenger RNA (mRNA) translation in distinct cellular regions. These research outputs are intended to enhance understanding of ciliary biology and cellular coordination mechanisms, thereby establishing a foundation for advances in diagnosis and treatment of cilium-related diseases. The NIGMS Biomedical Research and Research Training program prioritizes funding meritorious, investigator-initiated basic research that increases understanding of biological processes foundational to disease prevention and treatment.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
