OHSU wins $12.5 million grant to study ubiquitin
Original: OHSU researchers secure $12.5 million to explore ubiquitin, a fundamental driver of health, disease
Oregon Health & Science University researchers have been awarded $12.5 million to investigate ubiquitin, a small protein that regulates processes fundamental to health and disease. The funding will support studies into how ubiquitin signaling works at the cellular level and how its dysfunction contributes to illnesses, potentially informing future treatments. The grant underscores growing scientific interest in this protein system's role in human biology.
Why now: A major federal-scale research grant for a university lab draws attention because ubiquitin research could lead to new disease treatments
