About
Unlocking the potential of bacteria Nature’s greatest innovators
Our Story
The ErebaGen platform builds on 25 years of research from Professor Greg Challis’ lab, offering cost-effective, safer, and sustainable alternatives to traditional chemical processes. Our technology harnesses specialised metabolism to discover and develop biocatalysts that are typically inactive in lab conditions. It enables rapid activation and precise editing of these pathways for industrial use.
At ErebaGen, we are pioneering the next frontier of innovation by harnessing the immense potential of microbial metabolites. These tiny organisms, often overlooked, hold the key to groundbreaking discoveries that can revolutionise human health, agriculture, and biotechnology.
Our platform consists of three key components designed to unlock specialised metabolism for scalable, industrial applications
A word from our CSO
Microbial chemistry is amazing. It is a fantastic part of our job to look how nature has evolved incredible machinery to elegantly built complex molecules I would never want to make using my synthetic chemistry knowledge! Our mission is to harness the incredible, yet largely untapped, potential of microbial metabolites to create solutions to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges. At ErebaGen, innovation is at the heart of what we do and I am excited for us to continue to unravel how nature has built this fantastic toolkit and use it to transform industries and improve lives.
