Tierra prints custom proteins using cell-free. Founded in 2015 by Zach Sun, the company unlocks new proteins for their users & lowers barriers for protein synthesis. As a platform for protein engineers, users can send up to 10K protein sequences & get custom proteins.
The company relies on AI to assess expressibility of user submissions, enabled by the scale of cell-free systems to generate large amounts of well-controlled data. Then the proteins are produced with a cell-free system. And shipped off after quality control.
Tierra now powers companies from cosmetics, drug development, textiles, and even Salesforce with their protein design work. By producing proteins that cannot be done in cells, the product speeds up R&D providing a physical protein & its expression workflow https://www.salesforce.com/news/stories/salesforce-progen-ai-language-model/
The next frontier after genomics is proteins. Learn more about Tierra here: https://www.tierrabiosciences.com/
