Common questions

What is the target SHU of Venom Protocol?

Venom Protocol is engineered to a target of 2,052,288 Scoville Heat Units. Burn character: Heat Ladder: Venom Protocol. Capsaicinoid profile: extreme multi.

What host organism does Venom Protocol use?

Venom Protocol is a Pepper cultivar in the Heat Ladder series, built on Pepper (C. chinense). The construct runs 9 genes across 14,655 base pairs, driven by the 2A11 promoter system.

What license tiers are available for Venom Protocol?

Every catalog cultivar can be licensed at Specimen (one SKU, non-exclusive) or Sector (industry-sector exclusive) tiers. Genome and Platform licensing are available on request for category or stack-wide deals. See the licensing page for pricing structure.

What is included in the Venom Protocol download package?

The Venom Protocol bundle contains the full construct FASTA, a JSON manifest (gene list, promoter stack, codon-optimization notes), the FBA predictions, computationally designed CRISPR guide RNAs, the datasheet, a short product paper, and a signed ZIP for provenance.
