Statement of Work Summary

This is a Statement of Work (SOW) for services issued by the National Institute on Aging (NIA), Laboratory of Cardiovascular Science (LCS) under FAR Part 11. The project, titled "Detection of the 14-3-3 protein binding partners in the heart targeted AdCy8 overexpression mouse strain," requires mass spectrometry analysis services to identify protein binding partners and compare results between wild-type and transgenic mouse tissue models. The contract period of performance runs from April 13, 2026 to May 4, 2026, with typical project duration of approximately 5 weeks. The contractor must provide a Senior Researcher labor category to perform mass spectrometry analysis on 28 samples, analyze raw data, and deliver comparative analysis between control and AC8TG tissues.

The contractor is responsible for furnishing all necessary personnel, materials, equipment, technology, and facilities. Specific deliverables include raw data, detailed analysis, a results spreadsheet, software for data analysis and configuration, and a comprehensive report explaining findings. The government will deliver the 28 samples to the contractor at the National Institute on Aging/IRP facility in Baltimore, Maryland (BRC Building/Room 9B135). Inspection and acceptance will be conducted by the end user. Key personnel include Senior Researcher Maria Grazia Perino (NIA) and Richard Jones, Ph.D. from MS Bioworks, LLC (Ann Arbor, MI). All data produced becomes the sole property of the NIH under FAR 52.227-14 Rights in Data-General. The contractor must submit monthly invoices to the Department of Treasury's Invoice Processing Platform (IPP) within 10 business days after each billing cycle, charged at rates specified in the Schedule of Items by Contract Line Item Number (CLIN). Travel is not required, and the laboratory will publish raw data, analysis, and conclusions in a scientific journal upon completion.

Version 11-30-2016-1 FAR Part 11—Describing Agency Needs

STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW)

(SERVICES)

GENERAL INFORMATION

Title of Project:

Detection of the 14-3-3 protein binding partners in the heart targeted AdCy8 overexpression mouse strain.

Statement of Need and Purpose:

The purpose of this acquisition is to receive service to perform Mass Spectrometry in control, analyze, and compare the data.

Background Information and Objective:

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) Laboratory of Cardiovascular Science (LCS) is studying the detection of the 14-3-3 protein binding partners in the overexpression of adenylyl cyclase in the heart-targeted AdCy8 overexpression mouse strain. The mouse heart produces a strong beating heart with the upregulation of many pathways. The 14-3-3 protein is one of these proteins that emerge as central for the heart survival and regulation of the cell cycle and mitosis check points. The purpose of this project is to study the role of the 14-3-3 protein partners in order to elucidate their pathways and their mechanisms in heart cell survival, cell renewal and cell mitosis, and their regulation.

The plan is to analyze the role of the 14-3-3 protein by detecting its binding partners in the AdCy8 overexpression model. This analysis will be done through the use of mass spectrometry (MS) and comparison of the results with the wild type mouse model.

Period of Performance:

April 13, 2026 to May 4, 2026

SCOPE OF WORK

General Requirements: qualified personnel, material, equipment, technology and facilities.
