Scribe Therapeutics

Scribe Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Alameda, California, engineering CRISPR-based genetic medicines through its proprietary "CRISPR by Design" platform. Co-founded by molecular engineers Benjamin Oakes, Brett Staahl, and David Savage alongside CRISPR co-inventor Jennifer Doudna, the company builds highly engineered CasX-derived enzymes — including its X-Editing (XE) molecules for precise gene editing and ELXR epigenetic long-term X-repressor technology for durable gene silencing without altering the underlying DNA sequence. Scribe focuses initially on cardiometabolic disease, the leading cause of death globally, and expands into areas such as sickle cell disease and neurological conditions through strategic pharmaceutical partnerships. The company is backed by a16z and Menlo Ventures and was surfaced to the API Evangelist network as a venture portfolio company. Scribe Therapeutics is a therapeutics and drug-discovery company and does not currently publish a public developer API, SDK, or documented API surface.

Scribe Therapeutics is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Biotechnology, CRISPR, Gene Editing, and Genetic Medicine.
