Amide Technologies has raised $16.5 million in venture capital to help commercialize its peptide production process. The process was developed from 2011 to 2017 in the lab of the Massachusetts ...

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Amide Technologies, a biotech that synthesizes challenging peptides, announced today that it has begun commercializing its novel peptide manufacturing platform. The ...

A peptide sequence that performs well at micromole scale may behave unpredictably at gram or kilogram scale. Coupling efficiency, acceptable with high reagent excess, can drop when equivalents are ...

Dr. Salik attributes this trend to improvements in chemistry, purification, and large-scale synthesis strategies and equipment, as well as, in part, to the example set by the Trimeris/Roche drug ...

Vapourtec's Peptide-Builder, a fully automated, high-throughput benchtop peptide synthesizer, has been designed to redefine solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). Compact, efficient and intuitive, it ...

Inside our cells, ribosomes—the tireless "protein factories" of life—have just shown off a new skill they haven't used in billions of years. A research team has become the first in the world to ...

In May, TheraCode acquired JPT Peptide Technologies, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jerini. JPT offers peptide-based products and services for vaccine development, immune monitoring, and peptide ...

What is it? As the name suggests, nonribosomal peptide synthesis (NRPS) generates polypeptides sans ribosome. The resultant peptides, generally short oligomers of two to perhaps 48 residues, are not ...

Synthetic peptides, generally less than 20 amino acids in length, are essential reagents for a wide range of studies and one of the fundamental tools of proteomics researchers. Applications include ...

In the sophisticated world of endocrinology and molecular biology, few compounds have sparked as much curiosity as CJC-1295 DAC. As a synthetic analog of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH), this ...
