🎉 Announcing the expansion of our high-throughput antibody portfolio with the launch of a CHO cell line for Twist Express Antibodies! “With the majority of biotherapeutic drugs manufactured in CHO cell lines, expressing small-scale therapeutic antibody candidates in CHO for screening has become a vital first step to ensure successful downstream scale-up. We now provide a comprehensive portfolio of antibody production to further serve the biopharma market by offering both HEK293 with reduced turnaround times enabled by our Express Genes as well as the newly launched CHO cell line for Twist Express Antibodies,” said Emily Leproust, Ph.D., CEO and co-founder of Twist Bioscience. “By taking on the process of antibody development from sequence to protein, we meet the needs of therapeutic developers who currently make their own antibodies, a costly bottleneck in the discovery pipeline, providing them with a cost-effective, customizable, and scalable offering to support their research.” Twist Bioscience Expands High-throughput IgG Antibody Portfolio with Launch of CHO Express Antibodies: https://lnkd.in/gGh8nv4r #TwistBiopharmaSolutions #antibody #DNA
