Sturmfels' degree bound conjecture for graded normal configurations

Let AZd{\mathcal A}\subset\mathbb Z^d be a finite graded, normal configuration, and let IAI_{\mathcal A} be its toric ideal. Write dim(A)=d\dim({\mathcal A})=d for the Krull dimension of the associated toric ring. Sturmfels' degree bound conjecture. The ideal IAI_{\mathcal A} has a Gröbner basis whose elements have degree at most

d=dim(A).d=\dim({\mathcal A}).

This conjecture predicts a uniform degree bound for Gröbner bases of toric ideals arising from graded normal configurations. The source gives no resolution status.
