PLASMID DNA PRODUCTION With the successful completion of over 50,000 projects, we have developed unsurpassed expertise in plasmid manufacturing. Using proprietary technology, Aldevron manufactures DNA for a wide range of research, preclinical, clinical, and diagnostic applications (1 mg to 100 g). PROTEIN PRODUCTION Aldevron offers a wide range of protein services including host cell optimization, expression screening, process development, contract production, enzyme and antibody assay design, and more. Proteins produced by Aldevron are used for a wide range of agriculture and biomedical applications from research grade to full cGMP. ANTIBODY GENERATION GENOVAC Antibody Technology supports all project types from reagent antibodies to diagnostic and therapeutic applications with high success rates. Based on many years of experience, our immunization technology has been developed to cater for all protein targets where other methods have failed (including e.g. GPCRs). Our custom antibodies have been validated in over 130 publications and patents for more than 500 clients worldwide. Additional services include antibody processing, production, labeling, characterization and sequencing.
NanoString Technologies (NASDAQ: NSTG) is a publicly held provider of life science tools for translational research. The company`s technology enables a wide variety of basic research and translational medicine applications. NanoString`s products are based on a novel digital molecular barcoding technology invented at the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) in Seattle under direction of Dr. Leroy Hood. The company was founded in 2003 with an exclusive license to develop and market the technology. In 2008, NanoString launched its first commercial instrument system and began international sales operations with its first multiplexed assays for gene expression analysis. In 2010, the company launched new applications for the system to support microRNA analysis and copy number variation detection. In 2019, the company launched the GeoMx™ Digital Spatial Profiler enabling highly-multiplexed spatial profiling of RNA and protein targets in a variety of sample types, including FFPE tissue sections.
Cytokinetics is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing first-in-class muscle activators as potential treatments for debilitating diseases in which muscle performance is compromised and/or declining. As a leader in muscle biology and the mechanics of muscle performance, the company is developing small molecule drug candidates specifically engineered to increase muscle function and contractility. Cytokinetics’ lead drug candidate is tirasemtiv, a fast skeletal muscle troponin activator, for the potential treatment of ALS. Tirasemtiv has been granted orphan drug designation and fast track status by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and orphan medicinal product designation by the European Medicines Agency for the potential treatment of ALS. Cytokinetics retains the right to develop and commercialize tirasemtiv. Cytokinetics is collaborating with Amgen Inc. to develop omecamtiv mecarbil, a novel cardiac muscle activator, for the potential treatment of heart failure. Cytokinetics is collaborating with Astellas Pharma Inc. to develop CK-2127107, a fast skeletal muscle activator, for the potential treatment of spinal muscular atrophy and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Amgen holds an exclusive license worldwide to develop and commercialize omecamtiv mecarbil and Astellas holds an exclusive license worldwide to develop and commercialize CK-2127107. Both licenses are subject to Cytokinetics` specified development and commercialization participation rights.
Ansun BioPharma is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of unique host-directed anti-viral therapies for respiratory viruses. Ansun BioPharma has two products in late stage clinical development. Fludase is a first-in-class broad-spectrum investigational therapeutic agent to treat all forms of influenza, including pandemic variants and drug-resistant variants that cannot be treated by any currently approved flu therapies, including H1N1, H5N1 and H7N9. Paradase is an investigational nebulized drug which is designed to target the receptor for parainfluenza viruses and is being evaluated in a Phase 2 trial for the treatment of lower tract parainfluenza infection in immunocompromised patients.
Remix Therapeutics is a biotechnology company developing novel small molecule therapies designed to reprogram RNA processing and treat disease in entirely new ways.
