Company Profile
Oxford Expression Technologies Ltd. (OET) has emerged from a collaboration between Oxford Brookes University and the Natural Environment Research Council. It provides products, services and consultancy to the global pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries from its base in Oxford, which has quickly become a world renowned centre of excellence for baculovirus protein expression.

OET has quickly established itself as the world-renowned expert and leading provider of protein expression products and services built upon the Company’s innovative flashBAC™ baculovirus protein expression technology. flashBAC™ is a one step high throughput platform that enables fast and simultaneous production of multiple recombinant viruses suitable for small and large protein expression systems allowing scientists to produce proteins faster, more easily and cost-effectively.

A recent addition to the flashBAC™ stable is the new flashBACULTRA™, the only baculovirus vector on the market to incorporate the deletion of chitinase, cathepsin, p10, p74 and p26 genes from the virus genome, with the resultant superior expression and yield.

It has the following advantages:

• Increased recombinant protein transcription from the polehedrin promoter
• More efficient transport through the endoplasmic reticulum
• Increased cellular stability and longevity
• Increased recombinant protein secretion
• Increased recombinant protein yield
• Reduced proteolysis and degradation
• Increased recombinant protein quality

This new system includes additional modifications to the virus genome that further enhance the secretion and yield of recombinant protein. flashBACULTRA™ is rapid, simple and flexible and provides high quality recombinant protein with the minimum of effort.
