Structural Biology and Fragment-Based Drug Discovery Outsourcing Services CRO
Company & business model
SARomics Biostructures is a research-intensive contract research organization (CRO) in Lund, Sweden. SARomics Biostructures provides a broad range of structural biology outsourcing services, including protein crystallization and X-ray crystallography, structure characterization of antibody-antigen complexes and biosimilars, protein NMR spectroscopy, fragment-based drug discovery, and computational chemistry. In addition, SARomics offers the proprietary Weak Affinity Chromatography (WAC™) technology for fragment screening in collaboration with our partner Red Glead Discovery. Our labs and company management are located in Lund at Medicon Village.
The company was founded in 2006 and quickly established itself as a premium provider of structural biology and drug discovery outsourcing services to small- and medium-sized biotech companies, large pharma, and academic groups from North and South America, Asia, Europe, Scandinavia, and Australia. During the 17 years of our existence, we have contributed to various projects within all areas of structural biology and structure-based drug discovery and design. This is well documented in many publications, which we had the privilege to co-author with some of our customers. The scope of these publications reflects the broad experience we have gathered throughout the years serving the structural biology and drug discovery community. However, we do not claim any ownership of customers' projects.
Our services are provided on a fee-for-service basis with a project-based payment schedule, which includes a startup fee and additional milestone-based payments. FTE-based payment may also be applied upon agreement with the customer.
