------------------------ INNANTet - Development of innovative antibody and cytokine production technologies 2010-2012 - North Great Plain EU Regional Development Fund -Baross Program The aim of the project
The aim of the project is to develop an antibody designing algorithm which is based on structural information, to optimal and create antibody prototypes which are able to recognize native protein antigens, and therefore, they application is wider range, and their efficiency and reliability are much better than nowadays products.
Recombinant proteins are widely used in present-day medical biology. Antibodies are one of the most important tools used in the analysis of proteins. Nowadays antibodies are extensively used in research, pathological diagnostics as well as in therapy. Not only antibodies, but cytokines are also one of the most important reagent-family in immunology and stem cell research, and their therapeutic application is also extensive.
Our goals:
1. University of Debrecen aims to establish a research laboratory facility which is able to fast react in high quality and produce the necessary quantities of required antibodies and cytokines to meet local as well as international needs. 2. To establish novel epitope design algorithm in antibody development based on structural biological information, with the help of which it will be possible to create high affinity antibodies in an innovative way. 3. To develop labelled cytokines which can be traced in biological systems, and thereby to generate a new subtype of the reagent family. Members of consortium
