Dow Jones Description

We are a company engaging in the research, develop and assembly of transcription factor library. Transcription factors are specific DNA sequences that turn genes function on or off by controlling gene expression, like coaches tell individual players when to scramble onto the field and when to stay on the bench. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is present in all living cells and is responsible for determining the inherited characteristics of all living organism. Transcription factors in all higher organisms consist of two components: the first is a DNA binding domain that recognizes a specific DNA sequence and thereby directs the transcription factor to the proper chromosomal location; and the second is a functional domain that determines whether the gene is active or repressed. Transcription factors prompt particular genes to be active or stay quiet. We intend to engineer these transcription factors so that they can selectively bind to and regulate a target gene and so control gene expression and, as a result, cell function. We intend to improve these transcription factors to make them with more good function and less side effects so that we can sell or license the transcription factors which can be applied in the pharmaceutical industry, human therapeutics, DNA diagnostics and agricultural and industrial biotechnology.
