What was the state of gene synthesis screening before Project Paraphrase? What did that typically look like?

Yeah.

So again, it really depends on the company, right? Screening of DNA orders, especially then, even so now, is voluntary.

There's no requirement that anybody actually screen the orders.

Companies just do.

to do um so you know with that caveat i'll just talk about companies that were screening their their general strategies um so generally what what what you would do is you have this list of protein sequences that cannot be ordered or that are restricted in their ability to be ordered So that'll exist in a database somewhere.

A customer order comes in.

What do you do?
