Decoding
what life wrote.
Unlocking nature’s chemistry for the next generation of first-in-class medicines.
The unread library
Most microbial
chemistry remains
unexplored.
Microbes have given us medicines that changed the world. Yet much of the chemistry they can produce is still beyond our reach.
We make that chemistry real, screenable and usable for drug discovery.
New chemistry.
New starting points.
We turn unexplored microbial chemistry into molecules you can screen for your next drug discovery program.
-
CurateGo beyond familiar chemistry.
We select microbes carrying rare biosynthetic instructions to expand the diversity of chemistry you can test.
-
CaptureScale the search.
We capture instructions in parallel, at a fraction of the cost of cloning them individually.
-
ProduceScreen first.
Follow the hits.Test molecules in enriched extracts before extensive purification. Production in engineered hosts provides a route to resupply for follow-up.
The people behind the discovery
Join
the team.
From our lab in Paris, scientists and engineers work together to turn microbial potential into molecules we can study.
