AI Contract Overview

Dovetail Genomics LLC will provide Micro-C sequencing services to support NCI/CCR/LRBGE research on how substrate stiffness influences 3D chromatin architecture in colon cancer cell lines. The project involves processing eight government-provided samples using Dovetail’s proprietary Micro-C protocol, which leverages micrococcal nuclease digestion to produce highly uniform fragments for precise nucleosome-level resolution and detection of long-range chromatin interactions such as loops and interaction frequencies. This data will help determine whether physiologically relevant soft hydrogels alter chromatin organization and mechanosensitive gene regulation compared to conventional rigid plastic cultures, advancing human-based, animal-free cancer models. The contractor is responsible for sample receipt and verification, execution of the Micro-C workflow under standard operating procedures, comprehensive quality control, data generation, and delivery of all analytical outputs in standard formats with accompanying quality flags. Biostatistical support for interpreting the data is included in the service. The government must provide properly labeled, high-quality samples and an accurate manifest in the required format before shipment, and coordinate only after all documentation and agreements are finalized. All work must occur at the contractor’s or Dovetail Genomics LLC-controlled facilities between July 15 and August 31, 2026. Data must be delivered electronically, and the government has 10 business days to accept or reject deliverables; failure to respond within that time results in automatic acceptance. Any deficiencies within the contractor’s control must be corrected within an agreed timeframe. Samples and associated information are strictly protected and used solely for the stated purpose, with no access granted to NIH systems or facilities. The government retains full rights to the generated data for research and reporting, while the contractor must adhere to all confidentiality, sample handling, and destruction protocols outlined in the agreement. This is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 541715.

Full Description

Requirements:

1. Purpose

Dovetail Genomics LLC Micro-C service employs micrococcal nuclease (MNase) digestion to generate highly uniform fragments, enabling precise capture of nucleosome positioning with even genomic coverage. This approach provides increased mapping resolution at the nucleosome level, while proximity ligation data enriched for long-range informative reads allows detection of higher-order chromatin organization, including chromatin loops and interaction frequencies. The purpose of this Statement of Work is to acquire Dovetail Genomics LLC Micro-C services for samples processing and associated data generation in support of NCI/CCR/LRBGE research on the effects of substrate stiffness on 3D chromatin architecture in colon cancer cell lines. This information will allow us to better understand the impact of substrate stiffness on gene regulation and cancer cell behavior.

2. Background

Mechanical cues regulate cell behavior in development, regeneration, aging, and disease, and in colon cancer, extracellular matrix stiffening may promote malignancy by altering focal adhesions, YAP1 transcription factor activity, invasion, transcriptional programs, and nuclear organization. Given the rising incidence of colorectal cancer in young adults and the NIH emphasis on human-based, animal-free research models, we will compare human colon cancer cells grown on substrates of different stiffnesses to determine whether physiologically relevant soft hydrogels, compared with rigid plastic, alter 3D nuclear architecture assessed by Micro-C. This work will test whether matrix stiffness reshapes chromatin organization and mechanosensitive transcriptional responses in ways that may be missed in conventional culture, supporting more predictive human-based models for cancer biology research.

Although third-party service contractors may theoretically offer related sample-processing support, they would not provide the same Dovetail Genomics LLC quality micro-C data and may be more expensive while not delivering the same analysis, comparability, or direct platform support required for this project.
