This Project Grant award from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), provides $166,017 to the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to purchase an Isothermal Titration Calorimeter (ITC) instrument. The ITC will be used by a group of NIH-supported investigators at UCLA to study the thermodynamics of protein and nucleic acid complexes involved in important biological processes and diseases, including miRNA biogenesis, embryogenesis, bacterial pathogenesis, amyloid formation, Alzheimer's disease, neurobiology, cancer, and gene expression. The ITC will be housed in the UCLA Biochemistry Instrumentation Facility and made accessible to the entire UCLA research community. This state-of-the-art technology will enable rapid, label-free analysis of complex formations and provide critical thermodynamic data to support the funded research projects across a broad range of biomedical applications. The award period is from August 1, 2025, to July 1, 2026.
