Project: Development of novel Hot-Start (HS) polymerase technologies for the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

The project combines the skill sets of two SMEs, the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) reagents development (PCR Biosystems) and protein biochemistry (TargetEx). TargetEx will develop Hot-Start (HS) antibodies produced in cell culture and novel HS antibody fragments. PCR Biosystems will develop a novel HS assay, which forms the basis of an automated screen.The screen will be used to measure HS properties of candidate proteins developed by TargetEx. This leads to high quality HS PCR and qPCR mixes
