Our Team and Technology in West Sacramento

Hear directly from our R&D leaders – the experts in ag biologicals discovery and development.

In this video, they walk through our approach to discovery, high-throughput MoA characterization, strain optimization, in planta testing, formulation and scale-up. 

Our Encapsulation and Screening Technology: EncapS

Learn about the proprietary screening technology that underpins our Rapid Strain Optimization service. 

When paired with mutagenesis, this technology can identify strain variants with 1.5-5x improved performance. 

Our Automated Adaptive Laboratory Evolution Technology: ALE

Evolution is a powerful tool to rewrite genomes and adapt cells to new environments – without any direct gene editing.

With ALE, fully programmable continuous cultivation of microbial cultures can select for strains that are able to thrive in the field.

Our Deployment Team and Capabilities

Utilize Ginkgo’s best-in-class formulation, scale up, processing, and production services at bench, pilot, and commercial scales.

Get a preview of Ginkgo’s capabilities to enable scaled production – whether your product is a whole microbe, or an active ingredient like a protein or metabolite.

Our Enzyme Services, Powered by AI

For partners developing novel plant traits – optimizing the enzymatic pathway that produces the active can improve trait efficacy.

In this seminar, Dr. Emily Wrenbeck, Head of Protein Engineering presents on Enzyme Intelligence: machine learning models combined with massive experimental datasets generated by Ginkgo’s Foundry.

Our Protein Services, flexibly applied to peptides

For partners developing peptide and protein-based biologicals – we have deep experience in optimizing sequences and microbial expression hosts so you can launch more efficacious products.
