Non-Optical Methods for High Speed Protein Control
Contact and place of performance
Dr. Matthew Pava, DARPA/BTO
Not specified
DARPA BTO will be actively “shopping” the ERIS Marketplace for innovative, post-competitive, awardable solutions that address the need for a new class of rapidly switchable, non-optogenetic protein domains for real-time cellular control. This effort seeks to develop a robust and versatile molecular tool for massless information transfer across a cell membrane, intended to supplement existing synthetic biology platforms.
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Biological Technologies Office (BTO) issued this special notice to identify innovative solutions for developing a new class of rapidly switchable, non-optogenetic protein domains. This research effort seeks to establish robust molecular tools capable of real-time cellular control and massless information transfer across cell membranes to supplement existing synthetic biology platforms. DARPA will utilize the ERIS Marketplace to evaluate post-competitive, awardable solutions that address these technical requirements.
Classified under NAICS 541714 for Research and Development in Biotechnology (except Nanobiotechnology) and PSC AC12 for National Defense R&D Services; Department of Defense - Military; Applied Research, the solicitation is managed by the Departmental Offices. Dr. Matthew Pava serves as the primary point of contact for this notice, which is identified by solicitation number DARPA-SN-26-89.
The response deadline for this opportunity is December 8, 2026. One attachment, a PDF document titled DARPA-SN-26-89.pdf, was provided at the time of publication on June 8, 2026. No specific set-aside was designated for this requirement.
