The company is a world leader in discovering and developing novel therapeutics that promote the removal of dysfunctional mitochondria through a process called mitophagy. Its lead candidates, MTX325 and MTX652, both target USP30, a deubiquitylating enzyme that can retard cellular quality control processes. MTX325 is being developed for Parkinson's disease and MTX652 for acute kidney injury. Founded in 2011 by Niall Martin, Steve Jackson, and Xavier Jacq, Mission Therapeutics is headquartered in Cambridge, UK, and has raised over £117 million in funding from leading life science investors.
