- The Scripps Research Institute has been awarded a $2M grant (23-EXO23-0024) by a civilian federal agency through its Shared Services Center to conduct research investigating the primitive contemporaries of RNA and comprehending why RNA functions as it does. The award was issued on March 11, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of March 10, 2028, and will be performed at the institute's La Jolla, California campus. This grant was not set aside for any specific business category, reflecting...
- This is a $924,030.00 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Salk Institute for Biological Studies, a non-profit research institution located in La Jolla, California. The grant is part of NASA's effort to understand the origin of life on Earth, which will guide the search for life elsewhere in the universe. The research aims to construct RNA-based life in the laboratory, represented by populations of RNA enzymes that can catalyze their own replication...
- This is a research grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Foundation For Applied Molecular Evolution, Inc., a non-profit research organization, to support work related to understanding the origins of life. The $585,961 grant supports experimental research on the "RNA First" model for the prebiotic formation of RNA, building on the "Discontinuous Synthesis Model" (DSM) and exploring challenges that must be resolved for the DSM to be...
- This federal contract award was issued by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), a civilian agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, to the Scripps Research Institute, a renowned nonprofit biomedical research organization. The contract, valued at $90,001.00, is a delivery order that does not utilize a set-aside designation. Scripps Research Institute has a long history of conducting extensive research and development activities for the...
- This federal contract award provides funding to the Seti Institute, a non-profit scientific organization, to conduct research on the chemical processes that may have led to the origin of life on the primitive Earth. The $332,113 grant supports the Institute's investigation into a "sugar-driven one-pot synthesis" of potentially complementary monomers that could have been polymerized without the use of hydrolytically labile condensing agents. This work is intended to contribute to...
- This is a $911,716 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Scripps Research Institute, a nonprofit biomedical research organization based in La Jolla, California. The grant is focused on investigating the role of cyanide and aldehydes in prebiotic chemistry and the development of proto-metabolic pathways, which are key objectives under NASA's Exobiology research emphasis. Specifically, the research aims to systematically explore cyanide-mediated systems...
- This is a $579,621.99 grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) to conduct research on the emergence of an RNA world. The grant supports two specific aims: 1) studying how prebiotically formed peptides may have influenced the rise and function of catalytic RNA ribozymes, and 2) investigating how nucleoside triphosphates could have been generated from free nucleosides and trimetaphosphate in an early RNA world...
- This is a federal contract award to the Scripps Research Institute, a nonprofit biomedical research organization located in La Jolla, California. The contract, titled "MOLECULAR SCAFFOLD DESIGN COLLECTIVE (MSDC)," was awarded on June 18, 2018 with a potential value of $997,703.00. The contract is an Other Transaction Agreement and does not have a set-aside designation. Through this contract, Scripps Research is providing research and development services related to topics such as...
- This federal contract award is for a cooperative agreement with Blue Marble Space Institute of Science, a non-profit organization, to evaluate the impact of local environments on the functional potential of ribonucleic acid (RNA). The objectives are to better understand the role of RNA in the emergence of life by probing a wider range of environmental conditions than previous in vitro evolution studies. The award, valued at $448,622.00, is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space...
- This is a $28,578,062 cost-reimbursement contract awarded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), to the Scripps Research Institute, a nonprofit biomedical research organization in La Jolla, California. The contract is for "Identifying Targets for Therapeutic Interventions Using Proteomics Technology", which involves research and development activities in areas such as biochemistry, immunology, and...
This federal contract award, NNX15AL30G, was granted by the Shared Services Center, a civilian agency, to the Scripps Research Institute, a renowned nonprofit biomedical research organization, to evaluate the potential for simpler genetic systems based on molecules more basic than ribose-5-phosphate. The $567,358.15 grant aims to determine at what level of chemical sophistication self-assembly of a rudimentary genetic system architecture could arise, potentially leading to alternatives to the current DNA-RNA-protein basis for life, which is a major objective of the agency's exobiology program. The contract has no set-aside designation and was awarded on May 20, 2015, with a completion date of August 20, 2018.
