Cullgen is a biopharmaceutical company that has developed protein degradation technology that utilizes the bodys own natural protein disposal system to selectively and efficiently degrade and remove disease-causing proteins. Our technology, which we call uSMITE™ (ubiquitin-mediated, small molecule-induced target elimination) has the potential to address a broad range of intracellular disease targets, including those representing the up to 80% of proteins that cannot be addressed by existing small molecule therapies, commonly referred to as undruggable targets. In addition to using our uSMITE™ platform to build our own pipeline of protein degradation product candidates, we are also developing a portfolio of novel E3 ligands. You can learn more information about Cullgen on our website: www.Cullgen.com

Lysoway Therapeutics has developed unique technological approaches to screen and develop potent modulators of lysosomal ion channels, including TRPML1 and TMEM175. These small-molecule compounds can restore autophagic flux and resolution, as well as enhance plasma membrane repair through direct activation of lysosomal exocytosis. These modulators have great potential to treat neurodegenerative diseases with age-related decline of autophagy/lysosomal function or rare diseases characterized by toxic accumulation of cellular wastes.

Immusoft is a cell therapy company focused on developing novel therapies for rare diseases using sustained delivery of therapeutic proteins from a patient’s own cells. The company is developing a technology platform called Immune System Programming (ISP™), which modifies a patient’s B cells and instructs them to produce gene-encoded medicines. The B cells that are reprogrammed using ISP become miniature drug factories that are expected to survive in patients and provide therapeutic benefit for many years. The company is based in Seattle, WA.
