About Rapafusyn Pharmaceuticals
At Rapafusyn, we’re creating non-degrading molecular glues to address hard-to-drug targets. Using our FKBP12-binding macrocyclic peptide platform, we’ve built large DNA encoded libraries (DELs) and arrayed libraries, yielding novel starting points. Our approach targets intracellular proteins and domains of transmembrane proteins like SLCs, ion channels, and GPCRs. With a modular design, we rapidly optimize key drug properties to accelerate drug-discovery.
