UKRI – Constructive Bio to build on synthetic biology breakthroughs

Medical Research Council’s (MRC) Laboratory of Molecular Biology has launched a new spinout company, Constructive Bio, which secured $15 million seed investment.

Constructive Bio aims to re-engineer biology, creating new classes of enzymes, drugs and biomaterials and is based on the work of Dr Jason Chin’s group.

Jason Chin has pioneered the development and application of techniques to re-programme the genetic code of living organisms.

Last year his group showed that their re-programmed cells could assemble polymers entirely from building blocks that are not found in nature.
