About
Most drug programs focus on binding molecules to a purified “target” protein, hoping that binding will drive a desired downstream function. Octant engineers biology and chemistry at massive scales to modulate the function itself, targeting complex cellular mechanisms that drive disease. We've focused these efforts internally on correcting diseases of protein misfolding and mistrafficking.
