스포츠 보기 & Co., Ltd. (President: Katsutaro 스포츠 보기, Headquarters: Osaka-shi, Osaka, hereinafter "스포츠 보기") and Luxna Biotech Co., Ltd. “Luxna”) today announce that the parties have entered into a license agreement to grant a license to 스포츠 보기 for the manufacture and sale of modified nucleic acid GuNA™ amidite. This alliance is positioned as a strategic partnership that leverages sales network for chemicals, its ability to develop new sales channels, and Luxna’s innovative modified nucleic acid technology.

스포츠 보기™ is one of the artificial bridged types of modified nucleic acids using Luxna’s modified nucleic acid technologies (Luxna XNAs technology) and is used as a raw material for nucleic acid therapeutics. Compared to to improve affinity with target RNA and reduce neurotoxicity.

스포츠 보기 will pay Luxna an undisclosed upfront payment upon the execution of the License Agreement.
Additionally, 스포츠 보기 will pay Luxna milestone payments and royalties based on the future production and sales of GuNA™ by 스포츠 보기.
스포츠 보기 will not develop nucleic acid therapeutics using the licensed product and will focus on the manufacturing and supplying of amidites as raw materials.

스포츠 보기 has identified the life sciences and healthcare field as one of the key areas in our mid-term management plan. By expanding sales of GuNA™, 스포츠 보기 will contribute to the future growth of the nucleic acid therapeu

About Luxna XNAs Technology
Luxna XNAs Technology collectively means an innovative nucleic acid group of AmNA™, scpBNA™, 스포츠 보기™, and 5’-CP™ originated in Professor Obika’s laboratory at the Osaka University Graduate SchoolLux XNAs Technology could make available ASOs with high activity and low toxicity by taking advantage of its characteristics of strong binding to mRNA and/or reduced immune response.

About 스포츠 보기™
스포츠 보기™ has a positive charge, and its introduction into antisense nucleic acids can improve its binding affinity to RNA and nuclease resistance, reducing neurotoxicity, reducing immunogenicity, and prolonging the duration of action. nucleic acids, not only for knockdown but also for splicing control applications.

About nucleic acid therapeutics
Nucleic acid therapeutics are chemically synthesized drugs that use nucleotides - the building blocks of DNA and RNA - as their fundamental backbone. Unlike conventional drugs that primarily act on proteinsd therapeutics directly target upstream genetic information such as mRNA and non-coding RNA. This enables highly sequence-specific modulation of gene expression and allows access to intracellular targets that have been difficult to reach with traditional pharmaceuticals. synthesis, candidate compounds can be generated rapidly, supporting their development as a next-generation class of medicines.

About Amidite
Amidite refers to a phosphoramidite-activated nucleoside, which serves as the monomer used in solid-phase synthesis of oligonucleotides. These oligonucleotides function as the active pharmaceutical ingredients in 스포츠 보기

About LuxnaBiotech
Luxna is a biotech founded in 2017 to develop safer and more effective oligonucleotide therapies (OTs) for practical use with the drug discovery platform, called LuxiAP™, based on modified nucleic acids originated in Graduate School of Pharmaceutical Sciences. Its purpose is to bring OTs to patients with difficult-to-treat diseases. With antisense nucleic acids as our primary development focus, Luxna actively pursues both collaborative development with several
