Biopolis, S.L. is a leading microbial biotechnology company established in Valencia (Spain) since 2003, offering contract research and manufacturing. Biopolis is shareheld by the National Spanish Research Council (CSIC) and industrial and financial partners. Biopolis core competences are the isolation, selection, design, characterization, validation and production of microorganisms and cellular metabolites with applications in agro-food, feed, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Facilities are available for molecular biology and biochemistry, bench-top fermentation and scale-up up to 3000 L. Biopolis also has access to genomic research and next-generation sequencing facilities through its affiliate company LifeSequencing (www.lifesequencing.com) offering high-throughput DNA sequencing through Roche 454 GS FLX, IonTorrent and Illumina platforms, for bacterial and eukaryotic genome sequencing, metagenomics, transcriptomics and amplicon sequencing.

Biopolis contribution to INDOX will be led by Dr Marta Tortajada, Microbial Biotechnology Manager at Biopolis. She has 10 years experience in protein overexpression in microbial systems and strain and bioprocess design for biochemical and bulk chemicals overproduction. Other members of Biopolis participating to INDOX project will be Prof Daniel Ramón, CEO and CSO of Biopolis S.L, with more than 150 publications and patents in microbial biotechnology and biotechnological production of microbial metabolites, together with Dr Silvia Segarra, head of Biocatalysis Laboratory, and Diego Rodríguez, MSc, responsible of bench-top fermentation and scale-up, both experienced in metabolic engineering and whole cell biocatalysis.


The main role of Biopolis will be to set-up processes for the overproduction of selected enzymes leading WP6, and collaborate in process development and scale-up of both enzyme production and enzymatic transformation (e.g. for enzymatic production of flavours).
