- Description
- The National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), Bethesda, Maryland intends to sole source to Polymorhic DNA Technologies Inc, Alameda, CA for a requirement for DNA sequencing and data analysis. The North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) is 621511, and the business size is $11,500,000. The DNA sequencing project required is to detect DNA mutations by sequencing genes known to increase the risk of schizophrenia in order to elucidate further how genetic variation leads to disease. This project shall include at a minimum, but not be limited to, the following characteristics and features. (1) Shall sequence the additional intronic regions of the gene DTNBP1 (dysbindin). (2) Shall sequence the promoter of gene GAD1. (3) Shall sequence the remainder of the COMT promoter. (4) Shall sequence the gene MRDS1 - exons and introns in the schizophrenia risk haplotype. (5) This work shall entail amplicon design, oligonucleotide primers with amplification, DNA sequencing, and data analysis for 188 individuals under study in the CBDB Sibling study, and the postmortem brain "HBS" series. (6) Shall provide quality control provisions to assure this project is delivered in a complete and accurate manner. Concerns that respond to this synopsis shall furnish concise responses directed specifically to the requirements mentioned above and are invited to submit capability statements as an ORIGINAL PLUS ONE (1) no later than eight (8) days from the date of this announcement. Written responses shall include complete description of the equipment to be provided, containing sufficient technical information to permit agency analysis to establish a bona fide capability to meet the stated requirements as listed above. CAPBILITY STATEMENTS SHALL BE SENT TO: (a) If mailing your capabilities through the U.S. Postal Service use the following address: National Institutes of Health, Office of Logistics and Acquisition Operations, OA, 6011 Executive Blvd., Rom 529-T, ATTN: Carol Hayden, Bethesda, MD 20892, telephone: 301-402-3340; fax: 301-402-7494 or 301-402-3407. (b) If hand delivering, or using a courier services such as: UPS, Federal Express, etc., use the following City, State and Zip Code: Rockville, MD 20852. Respondents will not be notified of the evaluation results. (c) Questions made be emailed to Carol Hayden at Haydenc@od.nih.gov. Responses by Facsimile (FAX) will be accepted to 301-402-7494 or 301-402-3407 to the attention of Carol Hayden.
