Design-build-test-learn cycle

The engineering loop of strain and enzyme development, in which each screening round becomes training data for the next design round.

Where it's used

Strain engineering (synbio CRO)
Contract organisations that engineer the microbe or enzyme itself — directed evolution, computational protein design and genome editing of production strains — delivering measured process gains such as a substrate loading raised from 5 to 67 g/L and enzyme load cut from 100 to 3 weight percent, rather than selling a molecule.
