KAICO Company Profile

From academic value to societal value: From agriculture to industrialization and commercialization.

Our company is a university-based venture founded on the technology of Kyushu University. We have adopted the technology for recombinant protein expression using silkworms, which has been developed through research by Professor Kusakabe from the Graduate School of Agricultural Sciences (insect molecular genetics). Additionally, by utilizing the protein structure analysis, analysis, and reconstruction technology researched by Professor Kamiya from the Graduate School of Engineering (biotechnology, enzyme engineering, and biomolecular engineering), we aim to produce not only difficult-to-express proteins but also unique proteins.
