CRISPR Therapeutics AG is a Switzerland-based gene editing company focused on the development of CRISPR/Cas9-based therapeutics. CRISPR/Cas9 stands for Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) and is a technology for gene editing, the process of precisely altering specific sequences of genomic DNA. The Company aims to apply this technology to disrupt, delete, correct and insert genes to treat genetically-defined diseases and to engineer advanced cellular therapies. The Company has acquired the rights to the intellectual property (IP) encompassing CRISPR/Cas9 and related technologies and is also involved in its own IP research and additional in-licensing efforts. The Company product development and partnership strategies are designed to exploit the full potential of the CRISPR/Cas9 platform while maximizing the probability of successfully developing their product candidates.

Editas Medicine, Inc. is a genome-editing company developing potentially transformative genomic medicines to treat a broad range of serious diseases. It has developed a proprietary gene editing platform based on CRISPR technology that includes CRISPR/Cas9, CRISPR/Cas12a, engineered forms and foundational intellectual property for both CRISPR systems. CRISPR uses a protein-RNA complex composed of an enzyme, including either Cas9 (CRISPR-associated protein 9) or Cas12a (CRISPR from Prevotella and Francisella 1, also known as Cpf1), bound to a guide RNA molecule designed to recognize a particular DNA sequence. It is engaged in discovering, developing, manufacturing, and commercializing durable, precision in vivo gene-editing medicines for a broad class of diseases. Vivo medicines include vivo editing of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), liver cells and other tissues. Vivo gene editing in HSCs supports the advancement of research programs to treat non-malignant hematological diseases.

Intellia Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage gene editing company focused on developing medicine with CRISPR-based therapies and other core technologies. CRISPR/Cas9 is a gene editing technology that leverages the body’s natural processes to precisely edit DNA. The Company is developing lonvoguran ziclumeran (lonvo-z), referred to as NTLA-2002, for the treatment of hereditary angioedema (HAE) and nexiguran ziclumeran (nex-z) also referred to as NTLA-2001, for the treatment of transthyretin (ATTR) amyloidosis. It is focused on completing late-stage clinical development of its lead product candidates, lonvo-z for the treatment of patients with HAE and nex-z for the treatment of patients with ATTR amyloidosis with cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) and hereditary ATTR amyloidosis with polyneuropathy (ATTRv-PN). Its lead product candidates are the first in vivo genome editing product candidates into Phase 3 development. Its other pipeline products include REGV131-LNP1265 and AVC-201 & AVC-203.

Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. is a life science technology company. It is engaged in designing, developing, and manufacturing advanced sequencing solutions that enable scientists and clinical researchers to resolve genetically complex problems. Its products and technology under development stem from two differentiated core technologies, which include its HiFi long-read sequencing technology and its Sequencing by Binding short-read sequencing technology. Its products address solutions across a set of applications, including human genetics, plant and animal sciences, infectious disease and microbiology, oncology, and other emerging applications. It has developed HiFi long-read sequencing based on Single-Molecule Real-Time technology, which detects the nucleotide sequence and epigenetic status of individual deoxyribonucleic acid molecules. Its Revio, Sequel, Sequel II and Sequel IIe instruments conduct, monitor, and analyze single-molecule biochemical reactions in real time.

Sangamo Therapeutics, Inc. is a genomic medicine company. The Company’s zinc finger (ZF) epigenetic regulators are ideally suited to potentially address neurological disorders and its capsid engineering platform has demonstrated the ability to expand delivery beyond available intrathecal delivery capsids, including in the central nervous system (CNS), in preclinical studies. Zinc finger technologies are derived from naturally occurring human proteins. They are composed of a DNA-binding domain, which binds with precision to any sequence of DNA, and various functional domains (such as nucleases and transcription factors) based on therapeutic needs. Its pipeline includes Chronic Neuropathic Pain - ST-503 and Isaralgagene civaparvovec (ST-920). ST-503 is an investigational epigenetic regulator for the treatment of intractable pain due to iSFN, a type of chronic neuropathic pain. ST-920 is a wholly owned gene therapy product candidate for the treatment of Fabry disease.

Twist Bioscience Corporation is a synthetic biology and genomics company that has developed a deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis platform to industrialize the engineering of biology. The Company's platform's core is a proprietary technology that specializes in manufacturing synthetic DNA by writing DNA on a silicon chip.
