Abstract: Understanding how biology works requires powerful tools for manipulating genomes. Inscripta’s Onyx™ platform enables precise, high-throughput engineering of microbial genomes, offering an end-to-end solution from library design through automated strain engineering and analytics, including software, reagents, and a benchtop instrument. This helps to target diverse edits across the genome and unlock genotype-phenotype relationships at an unprecedented scale. we will discuss our work using the Onyx platform to perform genome-wide engineering of S. cerevisiae for strain optimization and “de-bugging” of yeast synthetic chromosomes.
