Oct 20 (Reuters) - Biotechnology firm Prime Medicine (PRME.O) notched a valuation of about $1.8 billion in its Nasdaq debut on Thursday, braving tough market conditions that have forced several IPO-bound companies to slam the breaks on their listing plans. Shares of Prime Medicine started trading nearly 12% above their IPO price of $17 each. Its investors include Alphabet Inc's (GOOGL.O) GV, Newpath Partners, Moore Strategic Ventures and Samsara Biocapital, the firm's website showed. Prime Medicine sold 10.3 million shares in its upsized offering, raising $175 million in proceeds priced at $17 apiece, the midpoint of its proposed range of $16 and $18 per share.

The gene-editing biotech Prime Medicine went public on Thursday. From a key patent to an uncertain timeline, here are five takeaways from Prime's filing. Its goal is to advance prime editing, a twist on CRISPR gene editing that could allow for a wider range of edits to DNA. Prime editing, another version of next-generation gene editing, works like a word processor, "searching for the correct location and replacing or repairing a wide variety of target DNA," the filing said.
