aceRNA Technologies

aceRNA Technologies Co., Ltd. is a Japanese biotechnology venture founded in April 2018 to commercialize the RNA design technology ("RNA Switch") developed in the synthetic RNA biology laboratory of Prof. Hirohide Saito at Kyoto University. An RNA Switch is embedded into a messenger RNA so that expression of the therapeutic transgene is gated by the activity of a specific microRNA inside the cell, letting a treatment act only on the cell type and cell state that is diseased. The company applies the platform across mRNA medicines, cell therapy and gene therapy, co-develops with partners (an agreement with Nitto Denko was announced in December 2021), and closed a JPY 960M Series B in May 2024 led by DCI Partners. It is headquartered at the University of Tokyo Entrepreneur Plaza. aceRNA runs no developer programme and publishes no API reference, OpenAPI or SDK; the only machine-readable surfaces on its domain are the Wix-platform llms.txt and Site MCP endpoint, both captured here.

aceRNA Technologies publishes 1 API on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, Therapeutics, Genetic Medicine, and Life Sciences.

aceRNA Technologies’ developer surface includes authentication, engineering blog, support, and 7 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Health regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/acerna: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  description: A live, anonymously reachable Model Context Protocol endpoint served from aceRNA Technologies' own host and
    advertised in the site's llms.txt. It is provided by the Wix platform, not built by aceRNA — it exposes generic Wix site
    tools (business details, in-site search, site API doc search, anonymous visitor-token issuance and a Wix REST API call/execute
    bridge) over the public content of www.acernatec.com. A tools/list call returns 9 tools with real JSON Schema inputs.
    There is no aceRNA-authored API behind it.
