Serna Bio Information

An estimated 85% of the ~3 billion base pairs in the human genome is transcribed into RNA, but only ~1.5% of these code for proteins. While the chemical properties of protein binders are increasingly understood and interrogated, the field of RNA-targeted drugs is relatively new and the properties of small molecules that drive specific and selective targeting of RNA, and associated assays, are yet to be developed. At Serna Bio [previously Ladder Therapeutics] we are using an AI enabled, data-first approach to write the rules that define RNA-small molecule interactions. Our Discovery Platform powers our first-in-class small molecule programs targeted at classically undruggable proteins and non-coding RNA targets, targeting both human and non-human biology.
