Gene Bridges Licenses Recombineering Technology To Chugai Pharmaceutical

Recombineering with Red/ET will allow cloning, subcloning, and modification of DNA at any chosen position. It permits precise engineering of DNA molecules of any size, including large one such as BACs or the E.coli chromosome.

Red/ET Recombineering is one simple and powerful tool to modify plasmids, BACs, and even E.coli chromosomes.

Gary Stevens, CEO, Gene Bridges, said: “Red/ET is fast becoming the standard DNA engineering technology used in industry and academia worldwide.”

“Having recently also licensed Red/ET to Daiichi Sankyo and Takeda we are delighted to be signing this amendment to another leading Japanese Pharmaceutical company, which found the existing license agreement worthwhile expanding,” he added.
