Ultra-high-throughput screening (uHTS) is an automated methodology for conducting hundreds of thousands of biological or chemical screening tests per day using liquid handling devices, sensitive detectors, robotics, data processing, and control software. The results of these experiments provide starting points for drug design and for understanding the interaction or role of a particular biochemical process in biology.
The automated storage and retrieval system for Licensee's UHTSS is designed to house more than 1,000,000 discrete compounds in solution for computer-controlled access. Aurora has developed an automated retrieval system for the module that can select and deliver specified compounds from this library of chemicals at a rate of at least 100,000 compounds per day for primary screening.

Licensor is a biopharmaceutical company which is focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of small molecules which target post-transcriptional control of protein expression, and which owns certain proprietary technologies for developing small molecule drugs by targeting such post transcriptional control mechanisms, including GEMS.
GEMS (Gene Expression Modulation by Small-Molecules) is a novel drug discovery platform technology which enables identification of compounds that target the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression.
Gene Expression Modulation by Small-molecules (GEMS) is PTC’s novel and proprietary screening technology for the identification of small-molecules that modulate post-transcriptional control mechanisms. Compounds identified through the GEMS technology modulate gene expression by targeting the post-transcriptional control processes that act through the untranslated regions (UTRs) of messenger RNA (mRNA) molecules.
Parties wish to collaborate on specific therapeutic targets with a focus on cardiovascular, metabolic and addictive diseases, and the discovery of clinical candidate small molecules which act upon such targets.
This agreement pertains to drug discovery.
