Superlines™ for Rapid Innovation
GeneNeer’s Superlines™ are the next generation of gene-editing technology, facilitating crop enhancement and innovation, providing growers a powerful tool to fortify their produce against the impacts of rapid climate change, including pests, viruses, fungi and other natural threats.
Gene Expression
with Precision and Control
Superlines™ offer an effective method of introducing and controlling gene expression in response to external application of specific metabolites, with a high degree of specificity. As a result, GeneNeer’s Superlines™ have the potential to become an increasingly popular tool for a wide range of applications in genetic engineering (introducing foreign genetic material into a genome) and genome editing (modifying native trait expression within a given genome).






PREPARATION
GeneNeer technology
locks the trait
(Inactive)






TRIGGER
Drought
and other stresses



APPLICATION
Apply inducer via
irrigation or spray






ACTIVATION
Trait is active
for 7-14 days



Induction to
“Unlock” Tolerance Traits
The technology is based on an RNA regulatory element (RE), designed by GeneNeer, which acts as an inducible gene system. The RE is a short, non-coding sequence, which, when spliced into the mRNA in an inducer-dependent manner, “locks” the targeted trait. By externally applying an inducer, the RE “unlocks” the trait, activating its desired gene and controlling its expression.
Advantages of Gene Editing Based on GeneNeer’s Superlines™
1
Competitive edge
Customers gain a tool for rapid development and innovation of enhanced crop seeds.
2
Precise control
Superlines’ RE can directly sense and respond to specific, nontoxic, low-cost metabolites.
3
Speed
Working from Superlines™ at the tissue-culture level eliminates the need for crossing or single-cell assays, thereby expediting response to impacts of climate change, and accelerating innovation.
4
Safety
GeneNeer’s technology enables complete control and extraction of the gene-editing machinery from the plant genome following editing, reducing the risk of off-target incidents.
5
Facilitating/Enabling
technology
In the case of potatoes and sweet potatoes, GeneNeer’s approach facilitates/enables gene-editing.
6
Stackable
Multiple traits may be added to a single Superline™.
7
Scalable
Superlines™ can be applied to a wide range of crops.
8
Modular
Superlines’ RE can be employed in a wide range of applications, allowing for a high degree of flexibility in controlling gene expression.
9
Empowering
Providing crop growers the right seeds helps them produce greater abundance and more profitable yields, while contributing to global food security.
