Recombinant BiologicsManufacturer & CDMO
The first company to produce recombinant biologics on an industrial scale without utilizing conventional fermentation
MicroProtein Technologies Inc., was founded by Vinod Pandiripally Ph.D. with the purpose of commercializing novel and cutting-edge methods for the culture of E. coli to produce recombinant biologics (proteins and plasmid DNA)
About Us
A Pioneer In The Field Of BioTechnology
After years of proprietary research and development, MicroProtein Technologies Inc. has developed a robust solid media-based E. coli manufacturing platform, MPTxpress, which far surpasses conventional fermentation as a reliable and inexpensive way to produce recombinant proteins.
MPTxpress has advantages including higher yields with incredible simplicity and related cost savings, including no need for bioreactors, mixers, etc.; is fully singleuse; minimizes up-stream and down-stream processing; and eliminates the need for expensive fixed stainless steel equipment. E. coli is cultured on top of a membrane laid on top of 12-inch square agar plates, with harvesting involving scraping concentrated protein paste off the membrane. Each plate produces >1 gram of protein after incubation overnight at room temperature in a standard lab incubator. MPTxpress is scalable to commercial manufacture, e.g., ≥1 kg/day – simply use more trays (mini bioreactors in parallel)

Contract Research Organization (CRO)
During the research and development of protein-based therapeutics, finding the optimal conditions for protein production is often a time-consuming and laborintensive process.

Contract Manufacturing Organization (CMO)
The R&D pipeline for new drugs has changed considerably over the past decade. Once dominated by big pharma and small molecules, today’s pipeline is increasingly populated with small and emerging biotech companies developing large molecules, or biologics, which now make up nearly 40% of the active R&D pipeline globally.
Fibroblast Growth Factor-Basic
Fibroblast Growth Factor-Basic (FGFb) is a critical component for maintaining stem cells in culture in an undifferentiated state.
Streptavidin
Streptavidin is a biotin-binding protein found in culture broth of the bacterium Streptomyces avidin. Streptavidin binds 4 moles of biotin per mole of protein with a remarkably high affinity.
Carrier-Free Human Interleukin-2
Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is one of a family of polypeptides that mediate interactions between leukocytes. It is a T-cell growth factor.
Recombinant Protein A
Proprietary recombinant Protein A
is produced using our proprietary
MPTxpress solid-state E. coli expression system. This Protein A functions essentially the same as native Protein A.
Recombinant Protein G
The gene we selected to use for the production of Protein G originated from Streptococcus Strain G148, and was cloned and expressed in our proprietary strain of Escherichia coli.
Recombinant Protein AG
Our recombinant Protein A/G is a fusion protein that comprises of a total of 7 IgG-binding domains EDABC-C2C3. This fusion protein combines the active Fc-binding domains of Protein A and Protein G that are contained in the recombinant sequence.
Recombinant Protein L
Recombinant Protein L is expressed by MicroProtein Technologies in E.coli using its MPTxpress upstream platform with innovative purification methods.
