Nuclera extends Series C to $87 million to advance antibody engineering

13 January 2026

UK-based Nuclera, a biotech accelerating drug discovery by providing rapid, easy access to functional proteins through its benchtop eProtein Discovery System, has announced a $12 million financing extension, bringing the company’s total Series C funding to $87 million.

Nuclera claims to be solving one of the most pressing bottlenecks in biologics discovery, the slow, fragmented, and resource-intensive process of synthesising full-format antibodies. 

The company says that its success in membrane proteins, one of the most challenging protein classes, combined with microfluidic expertise, places it in a unique position to transform antibody development workflows.
