Parts collection

Ducon is supported by 4 integrated part collections that each perform a specific function. With every part carefully explained and completely documented, our team presents not just functional systems, but also a philosophy on what it means to be a real collection.

It is important to note that the collection submitted for judging (UUID: 83dce544-4b00-4be8-9f41-c0f2e729572f) represents a comprehensive integration of all four specialized collections listed below. This master collection combines the succinate production capabilities of Pseudomonas putida KT2440, the laccase expression systems for both Pichia pastoris and Trichoderma reesei, and the 5’ Expression Enhancer UTR optimization toolkit into a unified resource that embodies the complete DuCon engineering approach.
