Computational Platform for Enhancing Gene Expression for Increased Protein Yield and Viral Titer
TechnologyDeciphering Gene Expression Code – We perform large-scale analyses of genomic data to discern the rules behind the various aspects of gene expression encoded in the transcript. Computational Modeling of Gene Expression – We develop predictive computational models to mathematically analyze and simulate the different stages of gene expression, focusing on gene translation. Engineering Gene […] Read More >
In Vitro CRISPR/Cas9 Assisted Targeting Scheme (CATsCH) for Low-Cost, Ultra-Deep and High Throughput Region of Interest Genomic Analysis
Abstract CRISPR/Cas9 assisted targeting scheme (CATsCH) is an in vitro method that targets long sequence specific genomic regions of interest. The RNA-guided Cas9 digestion system was adjusted to in vitro conditions in combination with cloning technique to facilitate the integration of long genomic region to a vector in a single step. In combination with sequencing […] Read More >
A Novel Antibacterial Bio-Treatment for USE In Aquaculture
Aquaculture is the globe’s fastest growing food production sector. Diseases are a primary constraint to the culture of many aquatic species and as a result, there is widespread use of anti-microbial veterinary medicines across the globe. The medicines pose a threat to human health because of the possible emergence of resistant strains and the transfer […] Read More >

Enhancing crop productivity by optimizing gene expression in plants, using proprietary and proven computational tools, together with genome base editing capabilities. Tapping into gene expression for improved crop UNMET NEEDCrop productivity needs to substantially increase to meet global food and feed demand for a rapidly growing world population. Agricultural technology developers are pursuing a variety […] Read More >
Plants Having Increase Tolerance to Drought and Salt Stress
Loss of function mutant of a specific gene in tomato, using CRISR/Cas9 genome editing, thatresults in plants with increase water use efficiency (WUE), drought and salt tolerance.Combined results from five different analyses demonstrate that the mutant tomatoes displayincreased WUE due to lower stomata conductance and transpiration while photosynthesis ratesand yield are not effected, compared to […] Read More >
Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Activity of Self-Assembled Nanostuctures
The self-assembly of peptides and functionalized amino acids into supramolecular nanostructures has yielded a wide variety of nanomaterials with numerous biomedical applications. UNMET NEEDBacterial biofilm formation on wet surfaces represents a significant problem in medicine and environmental sciences. One of the strategies to prevent or eliminate surface adhesion of organisms is surface modification and coating. […] Read More >
Plant Based Functional Biosensor for Precision Agriculture
The majority of biosensors used in agricultural practice today are based on indirect sensing of environmental conditions and inference of plant parameters from measured environmental parameters. We applied a new approach, leading to a viable paradigm for future technology, in which the biosensor measures plant sensing directly. Our biosensor is composed of amalgamated technology, comprising […] Read More >
A Wheat Leaf and Stipe Rust Resistance Gene
BackgroundRusts are a group of plant diseases that are caused by certain types of plant pathogenic fungi. Three types of rust diseases, namely leaf, stem and stripe rusts, are the most widespread diseases of wheat, each causing great yield losses globally; Modern wheat cultivars contain many resistance (R) genes that have been used to protect […] Read More >
