SAN DIEGO, March 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Telesis Bio Inc. (NASDAQ: TBIO), a leader in automated multi-omic and synthetic biology solutions, today announced Daniel Gibson, Ph.D., CTO and Co-founder of Telesis Bio will present “Building Biology Overnight: Eliminating Synthesis Bottlenecks with Hands-free Automated Synthetic Biology Solutions” at the upcoming Festival of Biologics conference on March 21, 2023.

In this presentation Dr. Gibson will discuss Telesis Bio’s solutions to remove workflow bottlenecks and accelerate lead discovery. The discussion will include the award winning BioXp^® platform that enables hands-free overnight synthesis of lead candidates, and a new generation of enzymatic DNA synthesis, SOLA (short oligonucleotide ligation assembly), which delivers robust and reproducible oligo synthesis on demand.

Telesis Bio’s unique SOLA approach addresses many of the challenges facing existing EDS methods related to build length, cost, fidelity, and scalability into synthetic biology workflows. Unlike alternative technologies that employ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), which incorporates one DNA letter at a time, the streamlined SOLA process generates high-quality synthetic DNA from a universal, pre-manufactured library of short DNA oligos.

“The short oligos provide the building blocks needed to efficiently assemble complex synthetic genes and mRNA templates using Telesis Bio’s industry-standard Gibson Assembly^® method on the automated BioXp system.” Said Daniel Gibson, Ph.D., CTO and Co-founder of Telesis Bio. “Together, the SOLA technology and BioXp system have the potential to significantly reduce timelines for constructing synthetic DNA, RNA, and proteins for numerous downstream applications including vaccine development, therapeutics development, diagnostics, precision medicine, and DNA data storage.”
