Appl. No.:

17/328883

Inventors:

- Emeryville CA, US
Jeffrey KIM - Berkeley CA, US
Oliver LIU - San Francisco CA, US
Jennifer SCHOCK - San Francisco CA, US

International Classification:

C12N 15/82
C07K 14/21
A01N 63/50
C12N 15/10

Abstract:

The disclosure presents a platform for discovering novel insecticidal proteins from highly heterogeneous environmental sources. The methodology utilizes metagenomic enrichment procedures and unique genetic amplification techniques, which enables access to a broad class of unknown microbial diversity and their resultant proteome. The disclosed insecticidal protein discovery platform (IPDP) can be computationally driven and is able to integrate molecular biology, automation, and advanced machine learning protocols. The platform will enable researchers to rapidly and accurately access the vast repertoire of untapped insecticidal proteins produced by uncharacterized and complex microbial environmental samples. Also presented herein are a group of newly discovered pore-forming toxins (PFT) from a rare class of insecticidal proteins, which were discovered utilizing the insecticidal protein discovery platform.

International Classification:

G01N 27/04
G08B 21/14
G08B 25/10

Abstract:

A wearable sensor badge utilizes a carbon nanotube (CNT) sensor array for selective sensing of chemicals from naturally diffused air or by sampling air using a pump/fan for higher sensitivity. An embedded microcontroller monitors the resistance of the sensing elements and by using an advanced detection algorithm the presence of TICs and/or CWAs are identified.
