“We made another small investment in Olink Holding AB, which is a health care tools company focused on the identification of proteins (proteomics). It has a proprietary way of identifying proteins that provides high specificity, sensitivity, dynamic range, precision, and scalability. Science has advanced dramatically with regard to understanding the human genome via next generation sequencing, which shows normal and abnormal portions of a person’s gene sequences. It is now moving toward understanding how those genes can actively create biologically significant signals (expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) from DNA followed by the translation of mRNA into proteins). These proteins can potentially be the means by which disease is initiated and spread in the body. Olink can help understand this process for researchers and help its customers to develop next-generation drugs to attack these processes. Olink’s platform can also be incorporated into novel diagnostic tests. This is a very exciting new area. We are looking forward to watching accelerating progress in proteomics.”
