Synthorx Inc. is a biotechnology company using synthetic biology to discover and develop novel protein therapeutics. Synthorx`s expanded genetic alphabet platform has the unique ability to drive the site-specific incorporation of multiple synthetic amino acids into proteins thereby tuning receptor specificity important for improving efficacy and safety. In addition, their engineered organisms provide the ability to manufacture these improved proteins, called Synthorins, with the required fidelity and yield. The unique Synthorx platform expands the chemical and structural repertoire of protein therapeutics and uncovers new ways to modulate pharmacological properties of biologics, not possible with other technologies. The company was founded based on important discoveries in Dr. Floyd Romesberg`s lab at The Scripps Research Institute in conjunction with Avalon Ventures, which housed Synthorx in its incubator, COI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The company is headquartered in La Jolla, Calif.
Dendritic NanoTechnologies, Inc. is a Mount Pleasant, MI-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
Color provides a high-quality, physician-ordered, genetic test at a low cost. We include support for physicians, as well as genetic counseling as part of every purchase. Our goal is to expand physician-supported access to genetic testing for hereditary cancer risk to every person, everywhere.
We founded Cedilla at a time of fundamental and rapidly growing insight into the mechanisms underlying protein stability. Small molecules that degrade or stablize target proteins are precedented, but have been discovered serendipitously. Cedilla is taking an integrated approach to discover new drugs with this mode of action. Our present focus is to develop novel medicines in oncology, but this approach will also be applicable to other fields, including central nervous system disorders and genetic diseases. Cedilla launched with $56.2 million in Series A funding from Third Rock Ventures.
Relypsa is a biopharmaceutical company leading the discovery, development and commercialization of polymer-based medicines to treat conditions that are often overlooked and undertreated, but that can have a serious impact on patient lives or even be life-threatening. Relypsa was founded in October 2007 and is headquartered in Redwood City, Calif. In 2015, we received FDA approval for our first medicine, which was developed based on our polymer technology platform for the treatment of hyperkalemia. In September 2016, Relypsa became a Vifor Pharma company. Today, we have more than 400 employees united by a passion for improving people’s lives.
