    Edelman, his colleague Dr. Vincent Mauro and
    other researchers at The Scripps Research
    Institute in La Jolla, CA.
  • The expertise and continued focus of this
    research team at Scripps is in areas of Gene
    Regulation and Protein Expression through
    Translation Initiation.
  • Through this expertise the Scripps team has
    developed a world leading understanding of the
    fundamental aspects of mRNA translation as well
    as several commercially capable technologies.

Promosome LLC The Scripps Research
Institute
  • The Scripps Partnership
  • 2 Year Research Funding and Option (RFO)
    Agreement in place establishing a relationship
    with Promosome and the laboratories of Drs.
    Edelman and Mauro.
  • Through the RFO, Promosome has exclusive, sole,
    worldwide rights to license any and all
    translational discoveries related to
    bioproduction and DNA vaccine.
  • Scripps 12 founders interest, subject to
    normal dilution no future royalties.

Promosome LLC,
  • This Scripps based knowledge is already being
    leveraged to drive a number of significant
    biotechnology solutions relating to enhanced
    protein expression within bioproduction.
  • Additionally, The Scripps knowledge is
    anticipated to drive future enablement in DNA
    Vaccines and Large Molecule Therapeutics.
  • These applications mirror Promosomes business
    model, the
