AI summary

Zydus group's biologics CDMO Zylidac Bio has partnered with Prolific Machines to scale Prolific's optogenetics-enabled biologics manufacturing platform to GMP production. The partnership begins with a 50-liter tech transfer at Zylidac's 83,000 sq ft Emeryville facility, then scales to 250-liter and commercial GMP manufacturing. Prolific's light-controlled cell line tech achieved 21 g/L productivity in a 15-day CHO run for monoclonal antibodies, with up to 3x titer gains for complex proteins. The deal creates an end-to-end pathway from early development to commercial supply using Zylidac's existing bioreactors.

Likely market impact

Strengthens Zydus' biologics CDMO capabilities through innovative platform partnership, potentially expanding client base and contract manufacturing revenue.
