June 26, 2020 | A version of this story appeared in Volume 98, Issue 25

 

Codexis will use its enzyme evolution technology to improve the DNA polymerase enzymes Molecular Assemblies uses in enzyme-based DNA synthesis. Molecular Assemblies, one of C&EN’s 10 Start-Ups to Watch in 2018, says its approach creates longer strands of DNA than current phosphoramidite chemistry does. Codexis will buy $1 million of Molecular’s stock and could accumulate an ownership stake of over 10%.
