A protein engineering startup passionate about developing safer cancer therapeutics
At Ginkgo Bioworks we are expanding the role of biology in our world.Nature`s biodiversity holds answers to challenges in health, energy, food, materials, and more. Organism Engineers at Ginkgo learn from Nature to develop new organisms that replace technology with biology.
RxGen is a Hamden, CT-based company in the Healthcare, Pharmaceuticals, and Biotech sector.
For thousands of years, people have discovered medicines from fungi by brewery. This approach has led to transformative medicines that saved millions of lives and have altered the course of medical history. Drug discovery by brewery proved to be difficult and time-consuming, leaving the field in search of a disruptive technological solution. Our genomically-enabled drug discovery engine is precisely that solution, dramatically accelerating the search for nature’s breakthrough drugs. At LifeMine, genomicists, bioinformaticians and microbiologists identify new evolutionary solutions for disease intervention; natural products chemists access the natural molecules that inspire our drug discovery efforts; biologist and chemist drug hunters craft these into disruptively innovative medicines, and translational medical scientists bring the life-saving solutions forward into patients in need.
Janpix is discovering and developing monovalent small molecule degraders of Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (“STAT”) proteins. Most members of this family of transcription factors have been known for some time and the relevance of STAT3 & STAT5, in particular, in certain cancers is well validated. Although disrupting the function of STAT proteins is very challenging, Janpix has developed new chemistry to address this complex problem.
