Company description

Synthace produces high value, bio-based chemical and biological products through the application of synthetic biology. They are able to rapidly engineer and optimise novel biological production systems. This is achieved through the integration of computational modelling and big data analysis with wet lab experimental design and innovative molecular biology tools. Their bioengineering platform is broadly applicable across multiple industry sectors, including the production of specialty chemicals from renewable feedstocks using efficient and sustainable processes.

Synthace develops cloud software for the life sciences industry, allowing R&D organisations to automate experiments and collate data and insights.

Projects

2017 Collaborative R&D

Industrial Viral Vector Manufacturing Using Advanced Process Analytical Technologies

1 Dec 2017 to 31 Jan 2020

Awarded
£225,996
Total cost £322,852

Cell and gene therapies offer unprecedented promise for the cure, treatment or long term management of disease. However, the challenge facing the industry is the need for viral vectors which can be consistently manufactured to commercial scale with rigorous tolerances for purity, potency and safety. This collaboration to support advanced therapies is led ...

2014 Collaborative R&D Lead participant

A toolchest for rapid bootstrapping of novel chassis organisms

1 Aug 2014 to 31 Oct 2015

Awarded
£99,014
Total cost £165,009

The bioscience industry currently relies on a small number of organisms to produce the majority of the recombinant products on the market. A collaboration between two UK synthetic biology Synthace and Synpromics and University College London, this project combines cutting edge computational techniques with multifactorial experimental design to develop a n...

2013 Feasibility Studies Lead participant

Rapid Engineering of Cellular Factories

1 Jun 2013 to 30 Nov 2014

Awarded
£176,500
Total cost £249,196

This project will integrate a number of novel synthetic biology technologies in a demonstration project to rapidly engineer a cellular factory. This includes a novel biopump from UCL which will allow the selective import of a hydrophobic substrate into the cell, where a short synthetic pathway will transform it into a higher value aroma chemical, before t...
