The world’s first transfer RNA (tRNA) platform company. We are unlocking the vast therapeutic potential within #tRNA.
About us
Alltrna is the first transfer RNA (tRNA) platform company, and our mission is to unlock tRNA biology and pioneer tRNA therapeutics to regulate the protein universe and resolve disease. Founded at Flagship Labs in 2018, Alltrna has mapped tRNA biology to systematically design tRNA medicines and encode a completely new, unifying approach to treating both rare and common human diseases driven by shared genetic mutations. Alltrna’s platform combines internal expertise and proprietary machine learning tools to unlock the entire tRNA biology space. We have an unprecedented opportunity to advance a single tRNA medicine to restore disrupted protein production, regardless of target, for thousands of diseases with the same underlying genetic mutation.

Had a great discussion today with Congressional leaders and Paul Melmeyer of the Muscular Dystrophy Association and Maynard Friesz of Cure SMA about the importance of the rare pediatric disease priority review voucher (PRV) program. Thank you to National Organization for Rare Disorders for organizing the Senate briefing and to Karin Hoelzer for moderating. #PRV #rarediseases #raredisease #drugdevelopment #innovation #patientsdeservebetter

Our CEO Michelle Werner will be speaking tomorrow to Congressional leaders about the vital importance of the rare pediatric disease priority review voucher (PRV) program. The reauthorization of the #PRV program before the September 30th deadline would continue the crucial incentives for developing new treatments for pediatric #rarediseases. More information about the event, the draft agenda, and National Organization for Rare Disorders’ recent white paper analyzing the program’s impact can be found here: https://lnkd.in/d_v2bnrb

Companies pioneering original science are essential to scaling and accelerating meaningful new medicines for patients – especially those with #rarediseases. We are proud to be one with the first #tRNA platform company to decipher tRNA biology and pioneer new #geneticmedicines to treat thousands of diseases. Congrats to Flagship Pioneering on this raise to fuel breakthrough innovations that transform health and sustainability. We are proud to be #FlagshipFounded and part of an ecosystem of companies – present and future – taking bold scientific leaps to deliver a better future for all.
Flagship Pioneering raises $3.6 billion to fuel critical breakthroughs in human health and sustainability. This expanded capital pool will accelerate the impact of original science and the creation and development of an estimated 25 breakthrough companies in human health, sustainability, and artificial intelligence. Hear from Flagship Founder and CEO Noubar Afeyan about how we're taking #BiggerLeaps by leveraging the power of generative AI, forging novel partnerships with pharma to speed drug development, expanding globally, and promoting and hiring top talent to our leadership ranks.

As part of #PrideMonth2024, we hosted a book club and read “The Autobiography of a Transgender Scientist” by Dr. Ben Barres. Dr. Barres’s legacy is two-fold: making breakthrough discoveries for neuroscience by elucidating the role of glial cells and his groundbreaking advocacy for gender equality in science. This book resonates with us deeply. At Alltrna, we believe in the power of bringing your whole-self to work. Because only when we can be authentic to ourselves can we unleash the full power of who we are and what we can do. We also had a celebratory brunch and raised money for BAGLY, Inc., a social support organization committed to creating, sustaining, and advocating for programs, policies, and services for the GLBT youth community in Boston. Thanks to the team for a great #PrideMonth! #WeAreAlltrna

Disease-by-disease, gene-by-gene drug development remains prohibitively expensive for the 6,000+ ultra-rare and #rarediseases that have been genetically defined. Alltrna’s CEO Michelle Werner explains how #tRNA could radically transform this #drugdevelopment paradigm to scale and accelerate new #geneticmedicines.
