Grant Activity:
Defining diets to treat inborn errors of amino acid metabolism
Purpose:
Inborn errors of amino acid metabolism are a group of rare genetic diseases for which treatment with diet alteration has shown dramatic promise. However their rarity make them difficult to study and treat. This project will create fruit flies with these diseases and test whether tailored diets can restore their health. Flies are cheap to study and easy to manipulate, and since their metabolic system is very similar to ours, we will use them as a rapid path to understand and treat these diseases.
