Research conducted at Birmingham’s Southern Research Institute helped develop a system to identify drugs with the ability to fight the virus that causes AIDS.
Trana Discovery, a North Carolina-based drug discovery technology company, worked with Southern Research to create a screening system to identify drugs that inhibit HIV replication.
The system can be used by pharmaceutical companies to “rapidly and efficiently screen vast libraries of compounds” to help in the treatment of AIDS patients, said Trana CEO Steve Peterson.
