Chimeric proteins
and chemical genetics to validate and guide target biology and pharmacology
Our biology engine is powered by small molecule control of chimeric proteins, yielding details on the depth and duration of target modulation needed to drive pharmacology.
We use insights from INFINI-T to match target to small molecule modality and guide the optimization of leads by medicinal chemistry toward effective therapeutics for patients.
>10K covalent fragments
for ligand discovery by
scalable biochemical and in cell proteomics
Our ligand discovery engine is powered by a diverse library of covalent fragments that extends beyond cysteine and can address all ligandable amino acids.
We use protein structure and computation to optimize covalent hits into leads where the small molecule modality is matched to target biology.
Nexo Therapeutics today emerged from stealth with a $60 million Series A financing led by founding investor Versant Ventures with participation from New Enterprise Associates and Cormorant Asset Management. The financing supports Nexo’s platform that combines combines the power of covalent ligand discovery and chemical biology to unlock a pipeline of novel cancer therapies directed against previously intractable targets.
