ARTAN BIO states that rare diseases and some age-related diseases can be addressed by targeting nonsense mutations, which create premature stops in protein translation and produce incomplete, nonfunctional proteins. The company’s stated belief is that an engineered suppressor system can specifically recognize these codons and restore normal protein translation.
SourceARTAN states that genetic and age-related diseases caused by nonsense mutations can be addressed with next-generation codon suppressors. Its stated view is that nonsense mutations create premature stops in protein translation, producing incomplete and nonfunctional proteins, and that an engineered suppressor system can specifically recognize those codons and restore normal protein translation.
