Tripped on Xenoport one too many times...fwiw...

Since its inception in 1999, XenoPort has raised over
$90 million in private venture funding. XenoPort's
investors include Alejandro Zaffaroni, Arch Ventures,
CMEA Ventures, Frazier & Co., HBM BioVentures AG,
Lilly BioVentures, Lombard Odier & Cie, Lotus
BioScience Ventures, Novartis BioVentures Ltd.,
Orbimed Advisors, Skyline Ventures, The Invus Group,
and Venrock Associates.

That may actually be the Novartis Venture Fund
venturefund.novartis.com

GlaxoSmithKline has a venture fund called SR One

Well for crying out loud, here is an article from
about a year ago at Signals:

Hi Mike.
No idea what's with RIGL. I too sold out at a similar level.
I'm similarly bemused with RNAI, and the new cash is in the bank there.
