Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

UKRI Biomanufacturing - 10101341 Platforms for GPCRs - Novel technology platforms for computational design and cell-based screening of peptide libraries targeting orphan GPCRs

Agreement Number:

1016558

Duration: from Mar 1, 2024 to Mar 1, 2026
Description:

As part of the international consortium project “Platforms for GPCRs - Novel technology platforms for computational design and cell-based screening of peptide libraries targeting orphan GPCRs”, this project will focus on ProteinQure and Orbit Discovery developing a new discovery platform for peptide therapeutics to drug previously undruggable, orphan G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs). The result will be new capabilities and products for ProteinQure to market. ProteinQure's Artificial Intelligence platform will design custom libraries containing over 500K peptides, and these peptides will be screened using Orbit Discovery’s platform. We will demonstrate the ability to drug orphan GPCRs, one of the hardest classes of disease targets.
