Glycomine, Inc. is a biotech company based in San Carlos, California, focused on developing nanomedicines for rare genetic disorders, particularly those related to protein and lipid glycosylation. Founded in 2014, the company addresses the significant unmet medical needs of patients suffering from rare diseases, of which approximately 7,000 exist globally, with a majority lacking FDA-approved treatments. Glycomine specializes in creating replacement therapies that combine substrates, enzymes, and proteins with advanced bio-nano materials. These therapeutics are designed to facilitate the targeted delivery of treatment to clinically relevant organs, thereby enhancing the efficacy of care for conditions characterized by metabolic disorders and protein misfolding.

Aura Biosciences is a clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 2007 and based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It develops cancer therapies using tumor-targeted pseudovirions, employing viral nanoparticles conjugated to infrared-activated molecules to selectively destroy cancer cells. The lead program AU-011 targets ocular melanoma, including primary choroidal melanoma, with the aim of treating tumors locally while reducing damage to surrounding tissue. The company pursues precision therapies for solid tumors and has ongoing development in other ocular oncology indications and bladder cancer, focusing operations in the United States.
