Lexington, MA-based Accent Therapeutics has a new idea to fight cancer. The idea is to develop drugs that target what are called RNA-modifying proteins (RMPs). RMPs modify RNA after they are produced by the DNA but before the RNA is translated into proteins. The activities of some RMPs have been linked to the development of certain cancers.

Accent believes this approach is a fertile field for anticancer drug development.
