>>MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Dec. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Perlegen Sciences, Inc., a privately-held genetics company, announced today that it has entered into a research collaboration with Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY - News). Perlegen will use its proprietary high-resolution whole genome association technologies and over 1.5 million Perlegen-identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to identify genetic markers for Lilly.

Lilly will provide Perlegen with undisclosed research funding and potential milestone payments and royalties. Perlegen will also obtain certain rights to develop products including novel therapeutics based on the research results. As part of the research collaboration, Lilly will make an equity investment in Perlegen.

"We look forward to using Perlegen's technologies to accelerate the development of important therapeutics and diagnostics for Lilly through high-resolution whole genome scanning," said Brad Margus, CEO of Perlegen. "This kind of research will apply Perlegen's capabilities to improving the lives of patients."<<
