This $998,726 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, a non-profit research organization and state institution of higher education. The grant will fund research to investigate interactions between microbial proteins and methane clathrates, which are ice-like formations that may be widespread in our solar system, including on icy moons and the Martian subsurface. The goal is to better understand the potential bio-signatures of microbial colonization of methane clathrates on Earth and other planetary bodies. The research will involve expressing and characterizing clathrate-binding proteins, quantifying their effects on methane clathrate formation and decomposition, and creating a public database of these proteins. This work supports NASA's Astrobiology program and its research on the limits of life and the detection of bio-signatures under non-Earth conditions. The grant does not have a set-aside designation.
