Kraig Biocraft
Nearly pure spider silk
This new system utilizes the company’s eco-friendly and cost effective silkworm production system. It is based on a non-CRISPR gene editing knock-in knock-out technology. Other than the silkworm’s remaining specifically desired native silk protein elements, it is now possible to produce nearly pure spider silk. This technology allows Kraig Biocraft to work with very complex protein sequences in silkworm, which are about 4 times more complex than published technologies.
The validation process for the 1st of these new transgenics and anticipates US production to be possible as early as 2022 or 2023 has already begun.
