Mammoth searches for and engineers unusually small CRISPR proteins. Size is the point: the standard delivery vehicle for in vivo therapy has a strict weight limit, and a smaller editor leaves room for everything else that has to travel with it. The same proteins also power rapid diagnostic tests.
Mammoth Biosciences was founded in 2017 by Jennifer Doudna, Trevor Martin, Janice Chen and Lucas Harrington. It develops ultracompact CRISPR systems including NanoCas for in vivo editing where AAV packaging limits bind, and CRISPR-based diagnostics derived from collateral cleavage activity.

Dit profiel is educatieve informatie samengesteld uit openbare bekendmakingen. Het is geen aanbeveling om een effect te kopen, verkopen of aan te houden, en het is geen mening over de vooruitzichten van het bedrijf. Biotechnologie is sterk speculatief en de meeste klinische programma's mislukken.
