Nutcracker Therapeutics Presenting on Nutshell™ mRNA Delivery Technology at the 2023 Oligonucleotide and Peptide Therapeutics Conference

5-2-2023

EMERYVILLE, Calif., May 2, 2023 — Nutcracker Therapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company dedicated to developing transformative RNA therapies through its proprietary technology platform, will present at this year’s TIDES USA, or the Oligonucleotide and Peptide Therapeutics conference, being held May 7-10, 2023 in San Diego, CA.

Nutcracker Therapeutics has developed its Nutshell™ platform of peptoid delivery vehicles for use with its mRNA therapies. This unique class of structurally-tunable peptoids contains both a hydrophobic domain and an amino-functionalized cationic domain to self-assemble with mRNA cargos, enabling the safe and effective delivery of mRNA for Nutcracker’s therapeutic programs.
