Nitrase Therapeutics is a biotechnology research company focused on developing therapies that target nitrases, a class of enzymes the company has identified. It leverages its NITROME platform to unlock the therapeutic potential of these enzymes and to build a pipeline addressing diseases where nitrases and nitro-substrates are involved. The research aims to slow or halt the progression of conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and cancer. The company is based in Brisbane, California. Within the biotechnology sector, it has pursued external collaboration to advance its programs. In 2025, the company announced the discovery of glyoxalase domain-containing protein 4 (GLOD4), a protein linked to catalyzing selective protein nitration, reflecting ongoing expansion of its nitrase-focused research.
