Notes to editors:
Proteome Sciences plc applies high sensitivity proteomics to identify and
characterise differential protein expression in diseases for diagnostic,
prognostic and therapeutic applications. It has discovered blood biomarkers
principally for stroke, vCJD, BSE, brain damage, solid organ transplant
rejection and Alzheimer's disease. The main focus of its research currently
addresses neurological, neurodegenerative, oncology and cardiovascular
conditions.
In addition to its own proprietary biomarkers, Proteome Sciences has developed
ProteoSHOP® (Proteome Sciences High Output Proteomics), a toolbox that offers
high sensitivity and high throughput gel and gel-free proprietary technologies
for the identification and validation of potential biomarkers and drug targets,
including specialisation in membrane proteins and protein phosphorylation.
The Company has developed a range of specialist reagents to improve the
performance and quantitation of protein separation and characterisation with
mass spectrometry, bioinformatics, statistics and pattern recognition. These
include Sensitizer®, PST®, qPST™ and TMT®. Proteome Sciences has patent
allowances in the major global jurisdictions for isobaric tandem mass tags (TMT
®) for the manufacture and use of any type of isobaric mass tags.
Commercialisation is actively pursued across the portfolio of the Company's
programmes and technologies with licensing deals signed in biomarkers for
Stroke and TSEs and for ProteoSHOP®.
