Case Study: LanzaTech accelerates complex biological design and DNA assembly with TeselaGen

From Waste To Fuel Accelerating Synthetic Biology to reduce human carbon footprint

LanzaTech, an industrial biotechnology company, faced significant challenges in scaling its synthetic biology research. The manual process of creating instructions for lab-automation equipment was time-consuming, error-prone, and limited their capacity to only tens of complex DNA assembly designs. To overcome this, LanzaTech implemented the TeselaGen platform, an AI-enabled operating system for biotechnology, to automate its workflows and manage biological data.

By adopting TeselaGen's solution, LanzaTech achieved 100% user adoption and seamlessly integrated the platform with its existing systems. The vendor's technology dramatically accelerated the success rate of complex biological designs, enabling the team to create over a thousand combinatorial DNA assemblies per week—a massive increase from their previous manual limit. This enhanced capability directly supports LanzaTech's mission to reduce the human carbon footprint by accelerating the development of carbon-recycling technologies.
