SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Hybridoma Cell Lines 2A4 and 5B12 Against Puromycin Description of 
Technology

    Protein translation is a central cellular function attracting 
increasing attention from cell biologists as they integrate gene 
product specific information into a systems view of cellular function. 
Scientists at NIAID developed the puromycin-specific antibodies that 
allow for the specific detection of puromycin-containing nascent 
polypeptides via standard immunofluorescence or flow cytometry. The 
resulting ribopuromycylation method (RPM) localizes translation in 
cells and can be applied to any PMY-sensitive eukaryotic or prokaryotic 
cell to study the dynamics of protein synthesis at the cellular level 
and investigate translational processes. It can also be used in vitro 
or in vivo to measure the number of translating ribosomes using flow 
cytometry.
    This technology is available for licensing for commercial 
development in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR part 404, as 
well as for further development and evaluation under a research 
collaboration.
    Potential Commercial Applications:

 Broad application for studying protein translation.

    Competitive Advantages:

 This technology generates antibodies specific for puromycin 
that can be used to localize translating ribosomes in all cell types.
