About us
X-PROT is focused on protein production and protein biophysical analytical services. X-PROT was a joint initiative between CNC - Center for Neuroscience and Cell Biology of Coimbra (Portugal), AIBILI - Association for Biomedical Research and Innovation on Light and Image (Coimbra, Portugal) and the portuguese pharmaceutical company Bluepharma in 2002, which received the European Regional Innovation Award in 2004 from European Commission as the best innovative project in the strategic theme - technological innovation and regional development. X-PROT was transfered to Biocant in 2005 and renamed as Molecular Biotechnology Unit. In 2015, the Unit was equipped with state of the art biophysical analysis technologies and renamed as X-PROT. X-PROT aims to be a strategic partner of biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies developing biologics and biosimilars, providing both R&D and analytical services. X-PROT is present in European Scientific Networks focused on both Protein Production – INSTRUCT network P4EU - Protein Production and Purification Partnership in Europe; and Biophysics – INSTRUCT network ARBRE – Association of Resources for Biophysical Research in Europe and the COST Action CA15126 – MOBIEU – Between Atom and Cell: Integrating Molecular Biophysics Approaches for Biology and Healthcare.
