Prosetta Biosciences, Inc. is an 11-year old biotechnology company developing novel small-molecule antiviral therapeutics based on over 25 years of basic research on the Cell-Free Protein Synthesizing Systems (CFPSS) by scientists at the University of California, San Francisco and the University of Washington, Seattle. The incorporation of the CFPSS in our drug discovery platform, has lead to the identification of small molecules which disrupt or alter the key protein-protein interactions involved with the assembly of viral capsids (the protein shell that protects the DNA or RNA genome of a virus). Prosetta has successfully produced highly potent compounds which display activity against multiple strains of many viral families including lead series of molecules that are effective antiviral agents against Influenza, HIV and HCV.
Gritstone bio brings together a group of distinguished scientific founders and advisors, a highly experienced and diverse leadership team and a seasoned and successful board of directors to tackle fundamental challenges at the intersection of cancer genomics, immunotherapy and other precision therapy areas, specifically in COVID-19 and HIV. With our unique approach to immuno-oncology and infectious diseases, we seek to generate a therapeutic immune response by leveraging insights into the immune system`s ability to recognize and destroy diseased cells by targeting select antigens. We started with a focus on tumor-specific neoantigens and more recently extended our programs to include viral antigens displayed on the surface of virus-infected cells. The biology underlying immune system recognition of targets on the surface of abnormal cells is common to both anti-tumor and anti-viral immunity. Consequently, we believe that activating and directing the immune system to these targets could offer an important opportunity to extend the benefits of immunotherapy for more patients.
CARBONDALE CLINIC AND SURGERY is a Carbondale, IL-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
