The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a grant opportunity through the Common Fund Program ‘Illuminating the Druggable Genome’ (IDG) for pilot projects focusing on non-olfactory GPCRs, protein kinases, and ion channels. The goal is to deepen the study of these understudied proteins beyond the capabilities of IDG Centers, validate IDG-generated resources, and explore the functions of these proteins in human disease contexts. The grant aims to enhance awareness of the IDG Program, demonstrate the quality and utility of IDG-generated data and tools, and extend the characterization of IDG-eligible proteins to catalyze research in biology areas with high potential to impact human health.

| Description: | The goal of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) for the Common Fund Program “Illuminating the Druggable Genome” (IDG; https://commonfund.nih.gov/idg/index) is to solicit applications for pilot projects on IDG-eligible understudied proteins (non-olfactory GPCRs, protein kinases, and ion channels) in order to study them beyond what the IDGs Centers can accomplish and to validate and demonstrate the utility of IDG-generated reagents, data, and approaches. Awards will support the generation of additional data and tools around understudied protein(s) identified by the IDG Program to elucidate the function of these proteins in the context of human disease. Data collected and tools generated by these projects will enhance the overall goals of the IDG Program by demonstrating the quality and utility of IDG-generated data and reagents to the scientific community, increasing awareness of the IDG Program through use of IDG-generated resources, and/or extending the characterization of IDG-eligible proteins. The overall goal of the IDG Program is to catalyze research in areas of biology that are currently understudied but that have high potential to impact human health by (1) identifying biochemical, cellular, or animal model phenotypes for understudied proteins from druggable gene families, (2) enabling further investigation of those proteins by providing reagents and tools, and (3) generating, maintaining, and facilitating the use of a minable knowledge base. |
