 PROFILE
PPL Therapeutics PPL Therapeutics -- seeing double? That's not unusual at the company that helped clone Dolly and Polly the sheep using nuclear transfer technology. The firm has successfully introduced human DNA into the genetic material of certain barnyard animals, which can then produce therapeutic human proteins in their milk. Its lead drug candidate is alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT), a potential treatment for cystic fibrosis, congenital emphysema, and other pulmonary conditions; Bayer is helping develop the drug and will market it. PPL is also developing a recombinant fibrin wound sealant with Smith & Nephew and Bristol-Myers Squibb, as well as a transgenic enzyme essential in certain pancreatic functions.
