Introducing Big Sky BacMam
Introducing Big Sky BacMam The R&D team at Montana Molecular has been hard at work improving our BacMam vector! We’re excited to release Big Sky BacMam – a vector which, in our hands, yields greatly improved transduction efficiency in HEK and CHO...
Detecting inhibitors of mutant 3CL proteases
Find your next-generation SARS-CoV-2 inhibitor using mutant 3CL proteases The SARS-CoV-2 protease is crucial to virus replication. If the main protease, known as 3CLpro can be blocked, the virus can be stopped. The commonly prescribed Paxlovid contains a 3CLpro...
Montana Paintbrush
Montana Paintbrush Montana Paintbrush (Paintbrush, MT Paintbrush) is a bright, rapidly folding red fluorescent protein developed at Montana Molecular. It is nearly twice as bright as mCherry 24 hours after transduction as seen in Figure 1 below. Figure 1: Fluorescence...
Next-generation drugs for the evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus
Next-generation drugs for the evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus There is increasing evidence that new variants of SARS-CoV-2 are appearing that cannot be treated with Paxlovid. This means that the next generation of antivirals will soon be needed to reduce the severity of...
