Light Horse is leading the way in precision genome editing applied to small molecule drug discovery, pioneering approaches to target the root causes of disabling and life-threatening diseases. Its advanced platform identifies cryptic chemically accessible functional domains within targets that play critical roles in disease biology. The high-throughput discovery platform systematically interrogates complex signaling pathways to uncover unique sites of vulnerability. Light Horse interrogates these targets in their native, cellular context to best ensure that discoveries in the lab translate into the clinic. www.lighthorsetx.com
