Big Sky BacMam Improves Transduction Efficiency

Big Sky BacMam Improves Transduction Efficiency

Big Sky BacMam is an improvement on Montana Molecular's original "OG" BacMam vector. In our first experiments with HEK293T and CHO-K1 cells, we found Big Sky BacMam yielded significant boosts in expression. Montana Molecular's R&D team and users of our fluorescent...

Detecting inhibitors of mutant 3CL proteases

Find your next-generation SARS-CoV-2 inhibitor using mutant 3CL proteasesThe 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...

Next-generation drugs for the evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus

Next-generation drugs for the evolving SARS-CoV-2 virusThere 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...
