Our Protein Microservices

Enzyme Plates

Custom Enzyme Panels

Designed for your target biocatalytic reaction and substrate. Approximately 96 curated enzymes provided as 96-well plates containing ~1mg/well of lyophilized E. coli cell free extracts.

Priced at an upfront fee per 96-membered library (multiple copies of plate provided). Additional license fee applies if the customer elects to license any identified sequences. Research Use Only and Development & Manufacturing licenses available.

FEE-FOR-SERVICE

Enzyme Variant Library Design Service

Accelerate your enzyme innovation with Ginkgo’s Enzyme Library Design Service. Starting from your target enzyme sequence, we create an in silico library of improved variants tailored to your application needs and engineering objectives. Using in-house developed and experimentally validated AI and computational design tools, our team generates high-potential sequence variations, providing you with a rich and diverse variant library to explore for enhanced stability, activity, specificity, and more. We can optionally train custom AI models on your existing directed evolution data and incorporate those learnings into intelligent ML-informed recombination designs. We deliver back a list of amino acid and DNA sequences codon-optimized for your target organism, ready for you to build and test.

Pricing and terms are available upon consultation and will vary based on specific requirements.
