Gains complementary antibody technology and discovery lab, new revenue streams and four fully-funded partnerships with potential for milestones and royalties
Crystal is a leader in the difficult-to-address-epitope area of antibody research with its HuMab technology, which is believed to be the world’s only chicken-based human antibody platform to successfully generate human antibodies. As part of the OmniAb® brand, HuMab technology will be called OmniChicken™. Because of the evolutionary distance between birds and mammals, chickens enable the generation of novel antibodies against targets that are not immunogenic in mammals like mice and rats, the core species of Ligand’s existing OmniAb platform. The addition of the OmniChicken platform will be complementary to Ligand’s OmniAb technology, and further solidifies Ligand’s position as the world leader in novel, transgenic antibody discovery platforms.

ここが現在トリ抗体世界最強のCrystal Biosciencesを買収したとはビックリしたわw
もうトリ抗体応用は煮詰まって進捗が大分滞ってると思ってたからなw
それでも30億弱の金額だからなw
