Tebuna Biotechnology is developing Non-Antibody-Based small affinity proteins against bio-molecules with generative AI and new screening technologies. Such binders are indispensable molecular tools in the whole biotech industry and we aim to provide them as detection reagents for biologists and diagnostic companies. Due to their small size (~5 kDa vs 150 kDa of antibodies) and the computationally designed nature, they provide various advantages over the traditional antibody and targeted epitope design for new functional studies. Ultimately, we envision that high-quality biomolecule detection tools will help achieve new scientific breakthroughs and broaden our understanding of human health. The startup will be headquartered in the Sophia Antipolis/Nice in France. Please note that the startup is not yet legally established.
