Chemistry from Nature
Transforming chemical manufacturing through sustainable biological based processes
About
Our Ethos
ErebaGen is a biotechnology company that harnesses the reservoir of biocatalysts developed over millions of years of evolution by Nature. Our innovative approach accelerates development and enables cost-effective, large-scale production for greener, more sustainable manufacturing solutions.
We specialise in unlocking and harnessing specialised metabolism, a powerful but largely untapped resource. Using diverse biocatalysts and chemical pathways, specialised metabolism produces structurally complex compounds. The majority of the pathways in specialised metabolism remain unexpressed under laboratory conditions, but ErebaGen’s proprietary technology enables the activation and the industrial use of the potential of this untapped part of the genome.
Specialised metabolism has a greater, more flexible chemical pool than primary metabolism.
Our mission
ErebaGen’s mission is to create a new generation of green and sustainable high value chemicals via safer and more cost-effective bio-based manufacturing processes. ErebaGen’s proprietary technologies, combined with a broad and deep knowledge of microbial biochemistry, enable us to innovate in replacing or refining chemical processes and products to address our mission.
Our Vision
We are motivated by two core goals: solving the toughest chemical synthesis challenges, inherently increase manufacturing profit margins by optimising process mass intensity; and envisioning a future where compound production is far more sustainable, routinely employing biocatalysis and fermentation in the synthesis of pharmaceutical, agrichemical and animal health products. We use our green discovery platform, a first-in-class, high-performing solution, to supplant conventional synthetic processes and products with superior bio-based alternatives. The platform leverages bioinformatics tools built through over 25 years of evidenced-based testing, alongside proprietary world-leading knowhow. This strategic approach not only surmounts enduring chemical synthesis challenges but also heralds a new era of sustainability and efficiency within the industry.
We are finding Nature’s best solutions to synthetic chemistry’s most challenging problems. Our platforms give access to a diverse pool of potential solutions by switching on silent specialised metabolism.
