Award for research on neurodegeneration related to NEMF and protein modifications, funded by NINDS, totaling $732,471.
Description
The project focuses on neurodegeneration, specifically on the role of NEMF and protein modifications with C-terminal Alanine tails. The project aims to understand molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration caused by NEMF loss of function. It involves research on protein quality control, neuroprotection, and novel therapeutics.
