Ubiquigent Enters Agreement with Nanna Therapeutics
Ubiquigent enters agreement with Astellas subsidiary, Nanna Therapeutics
Ubiquigent Limited (Ubiquigent), a drug discovery and development company harnessing novel deubiquitinase (DUB) modulators as new therapeutics for areas of high unmet medical need, announced an agreement with Nanna Therapeutics (Nanna), a small-molecule focused therapeutics biotech subsidiary of Astellas.
Terms of the Agreement
Under the terms of the agreement, Ubiquigent will provide Nanna with access to its deubiquitylase (DUB) focused drug discovery platform to support the development of novel therapeutics for human disease targets selected by Nanna.
DUB enzymes
The DUB enzymes regulate ubiquitination in the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). Dysregulation of DUB activity is implicated in many human diseases, highlighting their importance and promise for the development of novel therapeutics.
