DNA Nanocaged Enzymes
Compartmentalization increases the overall activity and specificity of encapsulated enzymes by protecting the enzymes, maintaining a high concentration of enzymes and substrates, and promoting substrate channeling. While there have been artificial enzymatic particles that have been created using compartmentalization by virus-like proteins, liposomes,...

Improved Space Object Orbit Predictions
Invention Summary: Efficient, high precision orbit prediction is increasingly crucial for improved Space Situational Awareness (SSA), especially as the number of man-made objects in earth orbits continues to grow rapidly. Current orbit predictions that are solely grounded on physics-based models are not effective and robust enough to achieve the...

Plant Evolved Crop Protection and Insect Control
Abstract Plants have evolved natural pesticides over millennia. Use of such naturally occurring insecticides provides a safe and cost-effective alternative to synthetics. The inventor has identified a readily available natural product that is very effective at controlling thrips, a major crop pest. Insecticide spending on thrips alone is expected...
