ARIA Opportunity Space: Programmable Plants
AI for Plant Protein Engineering
We are developing an AI-powered computational pipeline to design molecular glues to control specific cellular pathways that can accelerate plant regeneration, addressing a critical bottleneck in agricultural biotechnology. Our approach combines an AI agent for mining scientific literature, transcriptomic analyses to identify key protein regulators, and a protein design pipeline to develop a molecular toolbox to enhance plant cell regeneration. By creating these new tools, we aim to dramatically reduce crop development timelines from months to days, democratising access to plant biotechnology for applications in food security and sustainable biomanufacturing.
