Cell-free DNA production
One platform.
Multiple possibilities.
Newcleic is developing a new approach to DNA production designed to support applications across agriculture, therapeutics and research.
By enabling the production of complex DNA with greater speed, consistency and scalability, the platform aims to help researchers and organisations move ambitious biological designs closer to real-world use.
About Newcleic
Advancing DNA production for the next generation of crops
We are developing technology designed to help plant breeders create tailored, high-performing crop varieties faster and more affordably.
From DNA design to crop development
Producing long and complex DNA using conventional methods can be technically challenging, time-consuming and prone to failure. Our technology aims to streamline this process, making it easier to design, build and test the genetic combinations needed for the next generation of crops.
By combining advanced DNA manufacturing with artificial intelligence and machine-learning tools, we are working to improve gene stacking and accelerate iterative testing. Our goal is to give plant breeders a faster, more reliable route from an idea to a crop variety ready for further development.
Collaboration
Working together to transform crop development
Newcleic has received support through a DEFRA-funded Farming Futures grant, delivered through the Farming Innovation Programme in partnership with Innovate UK.
As part of this work, we are collaborating with UCL Biochemical Engineering on bioprocess analysis and The Sainsbury Laboratory on plant-transformation experiments. By bringing together expertise in DNA production, engineering and plant science, we aim to make advanced crop development faster, more accessible and more scalable.
