Arizona Tribune - eXoZymes' CCO Damien Perriman to Present a NCT Solution at Next Week's MISTA Symposium

The presentation will focus on NCT's potential role in metabolic health and its emerging relevance in the rapidly evolving landscape of food, supplements, and longevity-focused wellness solutions.

The March 18, 2026, MISTA Symposium Healthspan event in San Francisco brings together leaders from the food, nutrition, and health industries to explore how scientific advances can support healthier aging and improved metabolic resilience through nutrition and biotechnology.

"When it comes to health, a lot of people feel frustrated because they're trying - but nothing seems to work. They feel trapped between conflicting advice and solutions that are difficult to sustain. But now there's hope - what makes NCT so exciting is that it focuses on the underlying problem: how the body converts fuel into energy. By addressing that fundamental process, we believe it could represent a meaningful new approach to metabolic health," states Damien Perriman, Chief Commercial Officer of eXoZymes, and adds. "We're excited to share how advances in cell-free enzyme engineering are making it possible to bring this rare natural compound into scalable production and explore its potential across nutrition and medicine."

NCT was discovered in nature as a plant-derived molecule that has attracted growing attention for its potential metabolic benefits. Historically, its rarity in nature has limited broader development and commercial exploration. By leveraging its proprietary exozyme platform, eXoZymes is working to enable efficient production of NCT and related compounds using AI-designed enzyme cascades operating outside living cells.

The company believes this approach could unlock scalable supply of molecules that were previously impractical to produce, opening new opportunities across nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and specialty ingredient markets.

About eXoZymes
Founded in 2019, the company has developed a biomanufacturing platform that - as a historic first - offers the tools and insights to design, engineer, control and optimize nature's own natural processes to produce highly valuable natural products, via a commercially scalable, sustainable, and abundant alternative: exozymes.

Exozymes are advanced enzymes enhanced through bioengineering and AI to thrive in a bioreactor without using living cells. Exozymes can replace toxic petrochemical processes and inefficient biochemical extraction with sustainable and scalable biosolutions that transform abundant feedstock into valuable nutraceuticals and novel medicines.

By freeing enzyme-driven chemical reactions from the limitations imposed by cells, exozyme biosolutions eliminate the scaling bottleneck that has hampered commercial success in the synthetic biology (SynBio) space, making exozymes the next generation of biomanufacturing.

While the company, eXoZymes Inc., has introduced "exozymes" as a scientific concept, they are not trademarking the concept, as they view it as a new nomenclature for wide adoption for this next generation of biomanufacturing that eXoZymes aims to pioneer and be the market leader of.
