 PROFILE
Lexicon Genetics is a real knockout. The genomics company discovers genes, then makes information about them available by selling subscriptions to its OmniBank and other databases. Lexicon also develops and sells cloned mice with specific genes knocked out ("knockout mice"). The company sells its genetic information to drug discovery firms; collaborators include Millennium Pharmaceuticals and Bristol-Myers Squibb. Through "e-Biology" agreements with drug companies, universities, and other organizations, Lexicon hopes to earn royalties from drugs developed using its databases. Director Gordon Cain (whose Sterling Group conducted chemical company buyouts in the 1980s) owns about 25% of the company.
