QIAGEN has Licensed a Novel Algorithm Developed by Novartis for the Selection of siRNA Sequences for Gene Silencing Applications
Under the terms of this collaboration QIAGEN obtained a fully paid-up license from Novartis for the worldwide use of this prediction algorithm. Financial terms were not disclosed.
"We are very happy that Novartis has made this new resource available to QIAGEN", said Patrick A. Weiss, QIAGEN's Vice President of Gene Silencing and co-inventor of the TOM RNA chemistry. "This powerful tool complements QIAGEN's state of the art synthesis technology, combining biological functionality with high quality siRNA. This means that researchers can focus on their experiments and not on developing functional gene targeting reagents."
