ImmunoPrecise Antibodies (IPA) has entered a strategic partnership with Ribopro to transform therapeutic antibody discovery and development.

The partnership will combine the mRNA [messenger ribonucliec acid]-based antigen expression expertise of Ribopro with the in silico and wet-lab antibody discovery capabilities of IPA.

Utilising Ribopro’s mRNA sequence optimisation and lipid nanoparticle-based delivery expertise alongside IPA’s single-cell analysis, B-cell screening and deep-learning AI-powered discovery workflows, the partnership focuses on expediting and improving the development of therapeutics by antigen presentation improvement and immune responses enhancement.

The use of Ribopro’s mRNA and lipid-based nanoparticle technologies within the collaboration allows for efficient antigen expression, potentially leading to immune responses and strengthening the path to discovering new antibody therapeutics.

IPA’s strategy melds AI-driven analytics with specialised wet-lab methodologies to design and optimise antibodies with clinical relevance.

ImmunoPrecise Antibodies chief scientific officer Dr Ilse Roodink stated: “We are enthusiastic to expand our toolbox for the discovery of novel therapeutic antibodies with a state-of-the-art mRNA immunisation platform in this alliance.
