FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our AI-driven synthetic biology services.

What types of molecules can the AI pathway prediction platform handle?
Our AI platform can handle a wide range of molecules including natural products, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and industrial chemicals. The system works best with molecules that have documented or predicted biosynthetic pathways. For novel compounds, we use similarity analysis and chemical structure-based prediction to identify potential routes.
How accurate are the AI-generated pathway predictions?
Our platform achieves high prediction accuracy through ensemble machine learning approaches. For well-characterized metabolic networks like E. coli, prediction accuracy exceeds 90%. For less-studied organisms or novel pathways, we provide confidence scores and experimental validation recommendations. All predictions include thermodynamic feasibility assessments.
What host organisms are supported for metabolic modeling?
We support comprehensive genome-scale models for over 30 organisms including E. coli, S. cerevisiae, Pichia pastoris, Bacillus subtilis, CHO cells, HEK293, Yarrowia lipolytica, and Corynebacterium glutamicum. Custom models can be developed for other organisms upon request.
How does the DBTL cycle integration work?
Our DBTL integration platform automates the Design-Build-Test-Learn cycle. The system generates optimized designs, provides analysis pipelines for experimental data, and continuously updates ML models with new experimental results to improve subsequent design iterations.
What data do I need to provide for enzyme engineering projects?
For enzyme engineering projects, ideal inputs include the target reaction (substrates and products), protein sequence if working with an existing enzyme, or 3D structure if available. If you have activity assay data or known engineering targets, these are highly valuable. Our platform can also work with minimal information through homology modeling and function prediction.
Can multi-omics data be integrated into the analysis?
Yes, our platform supports comprehensive multi-omics integration including transcriptomics (RNA-seq), metabolomics, proteomics, and fluxomics data. We use advanced AI methods to correlate different data layers and provide systems-level insights, significantly improving prediction accuracy for complex metabolic engineering targets.
What is the typical turnaround time for pathway prediction?
Standard pathway prediction projects are typically completed within 5-10 business days. Complex projects involving multiple pathways, novel organisms, or extensive optimization iterations may take longer. We offer expedited services for time-sensitive projects. All deliverables include detailed reports with ranked pathway candidates.
How does AI improve upon traditional pathway design methods?
AI methods dramatically accelerate pathway design by processing millions of potential routes in hours rather than weeks. Machine learning models learn from vast biochemical databases to identify non-obvious solutions and predict pathway feasibility. This reduces experimental iterations, lowers development costs, and enables exploration of novel metabolic routes.
Do you provide downstream experimental support?
While our primary services are computational, we maintain partnerships with wet lab facilities for experimental validation. We provide detailed validation roadmaps with all our designs. For clients seeking full-service solutions, we can coordinate with partner laboratories for DNA synthesis, strain construction, and analytical testing.
What file formats are supported for data input and output?
We support standard bioinformatics formats including FASTA for sequences, SDF/MOL for chemical structures, SBML for metabolic models, and common multi-omics formats (CSV, TSV, JSON). Outputs include detailed reports in PDF/Word formats, pathway diagrams, SBML-compatible models, and machine-readable data files.
