Plant Cell Biomanufacturing

Growing the compounds the world needs, without the field.

Sophigenix engineers plant cell lines to manufacture high-value plant compounds in bioreactors: precise, consistent, and free of climate, land, and season.

A platform that turns plant biology into a manufacturing process.

Cell lines

Plant cells established and adapted to suspension culture from high-value species.

Precision editing

CRISPR-based editing tunes metabolic pathways toward the target compound.

Bioreactor scale

Edited lines grow in controlled bioreactors for consistent, climate-independent output.

Compound recovery

Target compounds recovered and purified to specification for downstream markets.

Rewriting plant chemistry.

Plants already make the most valuable molecules in food and medicine. We make them do it on demand: in a tank, not a field.

The platform

From plant cell to manufactured compound.

Sophigenix combines genome editing, plant cell culture, and bioprocess science into a single platform for producing valuable plant compounds: reliably, sustainably, and at scale.
