Project description

During a preliminary process (IOF StarTT 039), the VersaTile Platform has matured into a mature technology. The platform is a comprehensive DNA assembly method aimed at protein engineering and is extremely suitable for the synthetic biology of modular proteins. A service agreement with a company has been signed. Following a positive evaluation of the project, both partners aim for further negotiations concerning a license agreement.
