Uncovering New Mechanisms of Metabolite-Sensing and Signaling

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to understand how cells sense changes in metabolic activity, to ensure energy demands are matched with nutrient supply. Our proposal will fill critical gaps in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying metabolic sensing. This will generate new knowledge with far reaching potential for Australian industries that rely on the propagation and utilization of living organisms, including agriculture, biotechnology and brewing, as well as knowledge relevant to sporting performance and the metabolic dimensions of ageing. This project will support advanced training of early career researchers and PhD students, which will expand Australian research capabilities and contribute to a producing a highly skilled workforce.
