Biotech: Lonza Ties with Cellectis to Improve Cell Lines

Lonza says it has agreed a deal with Cellectis (Paris; France), a biotech firm involved in genome customization, to develop and commercialize bioengineered cell lines for manufacturing biologic drugs.    Under the deal, Cellectis will use meganucleases, which act as molecular scissors to modify Lonza’s cell lines.
