Our mission is to make biology easier to engineer. Ginkgo is constructing, editing, and redesigning the living world in order to answer the globe’s growing challenges in health, energy, food, materials, and more. Our bioengineers make use of an in-house automated foundry for designing and building new organisms. 

The RNA Purification & Characterization (RPC) team is composed of experienced nucleic acid and protein scientists and biochemists. Our team operates at the intersection of circRNA, mRNA and other nucleic acid engineering, high-throughput screening, fermentation, and downstream processing to help purify and assess biomolecules that are central to the mission at Ginkgo. We utilize the latest software and automation to develop low, mid, and high throughput methods for nucleic acid in-vitro transcription, purification, enzyme kinetics and biophysical characterization.

A key enabling technology of our Mammalian RNA projects is the ability to produce circular RNA in high amounts.  So far, this has been difficult for everyone in the RNA industry to achieve; Ginkgo is working ...
