    Abstract: The present disclosure provides multiplexed engineered cells, automated multi-module instruments and methods of producing biofuel producing cells for enhanced production of biofuels. This platform empowers users to design genetic variant libraries of insertions, swaps, and/or deletions, that can be intentionally or randomly positioned across the entire genome to generate engineered cell populations with improved properties for several common biofuel applications including, but not limited to, improved tolerance to biomass inhibitors, increased thermo-tolerance, increased ethanol production and/or tolerance, expanded carbon utilization abilities, and increased utilization of heterologous proteins or pathways.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides compositions and methods to increase the percentage of edited cells in a cell population when employing nucleic-acid guided editing, as well as automated multi-module instruments for performing these methods. Specifically, the disclosure relates to methods, compositions, modules and automated multi-module cell processing instruments that increase the efficiency of nucleic acid-guided editing in a cell population using a nucleic acid nuclease (i.e., an RNA-guided nuclease or “RGN”)/single-strand binding protein (“SSB”) fusion system. The system leverages a single-strand binding protein (SSP) and single-strand DNA annealing protein (“SSAP”) interactions to drive enhanced recruitment.
