Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc., the Michigan-based company using genetic engineering to allow silkworms to produce spider silk, is making use of some of the most advanced insect-related genetic engineering techniques known. Scientists have already produced the first transgenic silkworms, and other scientists have discovered the sequence of genes used by spiders to produce silk. The brilliance of Kraig’s approach is the bringing together of researchers from both of these fields in a collaborative effort to produce commercially viable quantities of spider silk.

Kraig Biocraft has acquired the exclusive rights in this field to the genetic sequences patented by the University of Wyoming, and the genetic engineering technology developed by the University of Notre Dame. The company is now working in conjunction with the leading genetic scientists at these universities to produce a transgenic variety of silkworm capable of producing the elusive spider silk.

Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. is focused on the development of high performance technical fibers and polymers using spiders and silkworms. While the production of a “super fiber” is the company’s primary focus at this time, it is also considering the production of other unique proteins using transgenic silkworms. It is thought there is a large viable market for such proteins in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

Kraig Biocraft is involved in research related to utilizing spider genes for insertion into silkworms to create a transgenic variety of silkworms. These silkworms will be capable of spinning a new “super fiber” that is similar to natural spider silk, which is one of the strongest and most resilient fibers known. Natural spider silk is five times as strong as steel of the same diameter.

Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Inc. is a cutting edge biotechnology company that is focused on the development of high performance fibers and polymers by creating transgenic silkworms inserted with spider genes. The goal is that these transgenic silkworms will spin a new “super fiber” similar to natural spider silk.

Spider silk is one of the strongest and most resilient fibers known. It has several properties that are unmatched by synthetic fibers. One property is spider silk’s ability to absorb energy and then dissipate the energy evenly. Another property is spider silk’s extreme resistance to breaking under strain. In this respect, spider silk outperforms all known fibers – natural and man-made. It is these properties that make spider silk especially attractive in applications for use in products such as bulletproof vests, artificial limbs, suspension cables and parachute cords.

Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. is a biotechnology company focused on the development of commercially significant high performance polymers and technical fibers. Based on proprietary genetic engineering technology, the company is working to develop and produce polymers and protein-based materials from silkworms and spiders. Kraig Biocraft believes that spider silk is a “super fiber” that will have numerous commercial and consumer applications.

Kraig Biocraft recently announced that scientists have discovered a way to make spider silk three times stronger by adding small amounts of metal. Even though the natural spider-made fiber is already tougher and lighter than steel, this new technique could make it useful for manufacturing super-tough textiles and high-tech medical materials, such as artificial bonds and tendons.

The discovery, published by the journal “Science”, was made by researcher Seung-Mo Lee of the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics in Halle, Germany. The breakthrough addition of zinc,
