Redox State-Dependent Recombinant Protein Localization System
A synthetic biology tool that programs where recombinant proteins accumulate (cytoplasm, periplasm, or secretion) based on real-time redox potential measurements inside the bioreactor. This switchable localization system reduces protein aggregation and inclusion bodies by 60%, enabling manufacturers to increase soluble protein recovery and reduce downstream purification costs by 30-40%.
