This NIH-funded project by the National Institute on Drug Abuse studies microbial biofilms' role in amphetamine use disorders, focusing on glucosyl transferases and their impact on biofilm formation and behavior.
Description
The project involves evaluating the role of microbial proteins, glucosyl transferases, in biofilm formation and amphetamine use disorder. The project aims to determine how Gtf activity regulates biofilm formation and behavioral responses related to amphetamine use.
