Paras Biopharmaceuticals Successfully Develops Cytofold StructQuant� Technology for Cytoplasmic Disulphide Formation, (for Active Folding) for Complex Therapeutic Protein

oulu, Finland, September 10, 2019 –(PR.com)– Paras Biopharmaceuticals Finland Oy is pleased to announce that its proprietary technology, Cytofold StructQuant�, is established for the high-level expression of homogeneously folded disulfide bond containing proteins in the cytoplasm of E. Coli. The technology offers all cost benefits of expression in E. Coli rather than in eukaryotic systems, while at the same time retaining the high yields obtained in cytoplasmic expression. The biologics produced are of the highest quality and have maximal biological activity.

In a nutshell, the advantages that this Cytofold® Technology allows:

· Low cost production of biologics that contain disulfide bonds.
· Large scale production of biologically active eukaryotic proteins in the cytoplasm of E. Coli.
· Decreased production costs via high yield production in E. Coli.
· Reduced process development time as in vitro refolding optimization is not required.

These developments highlight the variance from previous systems – this technology works in any E.coli strain and does not require the disruption of the reducing pathways naturally present. The system also works in all media and does not require any supplementation of the media, therefore allowing a further reduction in costs.

“The system has been successful for the production in high yields. The successful development of Cytofold StructQuant® technology further adds to our already existing portfolio of bioprocess technology knowledge,” says Dr. Ashesh Kumar, CEO. “We will be able to serve our clients better and more effectively, with higher quality and lower costs,” says Dr. Mark Jackson, Administrative Lead, Paras Biopharmaceuticals.

Paras Biopharmaceuticals has successfully used Cytofold® technology along with the company’s other technology Biomultifold® to produce difficult to manufacture proteins and will offer these technologies to CDMO clients and utilise in Biosimilar and Biologics production.
