Why is everyone so crazy about RuBisCO? 🌱 Ribulose bisphosphate Carboxylase-Oxygenase or RuBisCO is the most abundant protein on Earth, and it catalyses the first step of carbon fixation during photosynthesis, but it is slow. If engineered, RuBisCO could be made more efficient and the sequestration of CO2 could be improved. The David Savage lab (HHMI, University of California, Berkeley & the Innovative Genomics Institute are laying the groundwork for enzyme engineering efforts. Read their latest work below! Thank you to the authors for choosing Twist Bioscience DNA to support this work. 🧬

It’s a good time to be in functional genomics. A few era-defining advancements are only possible thanks to advances in synthetic DNA manufacturing that are foundational to modern molecular biology. Read on to discover the advancements including AI, and learn more about how Multiplexed Gene Fragments are purpose-built for high-throughput functional genomic and protein screening workflows. Our very own Julian Jude, PhD does a fabulous job explaining it all in this short article, “Julian Jude on Synthesizing a New Era in Functional Genomics”👉 https://lnkd.in/gG-s_mTw Twist Bioscience, #DNA, #genes, AIChE - American Institute of Chemical Engineers

Combatting Global Warming With A $4.3 Million Heifer. 🐄 At over six feet tall and weighing in excess of 2,400 pounds, Viatina is twice the size of average adults in the Nelor breed (Bos indicus)1,2. Her impressive stature has made her a prized member of her species worth roughly $4.3 million, qualifying Viatina as the world’s most valuable cow. But the true source of her worth comes from her DNA and the potential future it encodes. 🧬 NGS fans, you’re definitely going to want to read this: https://lnkd.in/gxAVMwr6 Twist Bioscience, #NGS, #DNA

“In the quiet corners of fermenters and bioreactors, a revolution unfolds. It doesn’t grab headlines like rocket launches or AI breakthroughs, but its implications may ripple just as far. Biomanufacturing—the use of biological systems to produce materials, medicines, and energy—is reshaping how we live, how we work, and how we sustain ourselves.” Don’t miss this great podcast and article discussing the recent U.S. federal report on advancing domestic biomanufacturing: https://lnkd.in/e7ctvaAH National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology (NSCEB), Alexander Titus
