Georgia State University
Made in the ATL
Using the power of Synthetic Biology to produce natural products
We’re Doing It #TheStateWay
Located at the heart of Downtown Atlanta, Georgia, GSU is among the top 20 most innovative institutions in the USA.
Mambalgin
Mambalgin is a potent analgesic protein found in the venom of the Black Mamba snake (Dendroaspis polylepis). This protein has been found to inhibit acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) in the central and peripheral nervous systems of mice through intraplanter and intrathecal injections.
moreBactoInk
Our bacteria will be engineered to be used as a viable alternative to printer ink as well as pen ink. They will be transformed with fusion proteins composed of a cellulose binding domain(CBD) and a chroma protein, blue and red. The CBD will allow the bacteria to bind to paper and the various chroma proteins will give the ink color.
moreHorseshoe Crab Factor-C Detection Spray
We will synthetically produce the factor C protein from the horseshoe crab blood and create a system to detect gram negative bacteria without the harvesting of horseshoe crabs.
