Our fruit fly biotechnology
The EntoEngine™
Fly by design
Our biomanufacturing platform, the EntoEngine™, uses the common fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) as its protein expression system.
Building on a century of genetics research, Future Fields is the first in the world to harness fruit flies for commercial recombinant protein production.
WHY DROSOPHILA?
✓ Affordable development and production of proteins
✓ Unbeatable capacity due to scalable, bioreactor-free system
✓ Flexibility of protein development due to whole insect system
✓ Simple bioprocessing with serum-free output
Enabling great science
"Future Fields is a shining example of what is incredible about the innovation driving the bioeconomy. Using fruit flies as ‘factories’ for recombinant proteins is an ingenious approach to bringing more scalable and sustainable solutions to biomanufacturing."
- Dr. John Cumbers, founder and CEO of SynBioBeta
