Company: CEVEC Pharmaceuticals (Germany) CCS Cell Culture Service (Germany)
Therapeutic area:
Type agreement: licensing
Action mechanism: The transient CAP-TTM protein production technology is based on CAP® cells, an immortalized cell line for stable protein production developed by CEVEC. These non-tumor origin cell lines exhibit high protein expression, have been adapted to serum-free suspension culture and show post-translational modifications that are human-like, including authentic human glycosylation patterns.
