SAN DIEGO, June 17, 2024 ~ In a recent announcement, Primrose Bio, Inc. revealed that it has received a significant equity investment from 1315 Capital, a healthcare-focused growth equity firm based in Philadelphia. This investment will provide the necessary funds for the company to further develop and expand its three major offerings.
Primrose Bio, Inc., also known as "Primrose," is dedicated to developing and licensing manufacturing technologies for nucleic acids and proteins used in therapeutics and vaccines. With this new investment, the company is well-positioned to advance its solutions for therapeutic protein and nucleic acid manufacturing with both current and future partners.
One of Primrose's key offerings is Prima RNApols™, which are proprietary RNA polymerase enzymes that have been shown to significantly improve mRNA manufacturing. These enzymes have been found to increase yields by up to 5 times, eliminate double-stranded RNA, and enhance cap incorporation compared to the commonly used T7 RNA polymerase standard.
Another major offering from Primrose is Pfenex Expression Technology®, a validated microbial expression system that has been used in five approved drugs. This technology consistently demonstrates 10-20 times higher yields compared to other systems such as E.coli, CHO, and yeast-based systems. It also boasts an unparalleled success rate in producing complex proteins.

Lastly, Primrose offers PeliCRM®, the only commercially available CRM197 conjugate vaccine carrier protein used in approved products. This technology plays a crucial role in the production of vaccines.
Dr. Helge Zieler, CEO of Primrose Bio, Inc., expressed excitement about the partnership with 1315 Capital. "We are thrilled to have the support of such a high-quality organization and team at 1315 Capital who share our vision of expanding opportunities in biomanufacturing technologies for the pharmaceutical industry," he said.
Matt Reber, Partner at 1315 Capital, also shared his enthusiasm for this collaboration. "There has been a tremendous amount of innovation in therapeutics over the last decades, and relatively little in their production systems," he stated. "Primrose's validated technology platforms address an increasingly important challenge facing the industry as drugs get more complex, and pricing pressure continues to mount."
With this new investment, Primrose Bio, Inc. is poised to make significant strides in the biomanufacturing industry and continue to provide cutting-edge solutions for therapeutic protein and nucleic acid manufacturing.
