93 results about "Protein design" patented technology

Protein design is the rational design of new protein molecules to design novel activity, behavior, or purpose, and to advance basic understanding of protein function. Proteins can be designed from scratch (de novo design) or by making calculated variants of a known protein structure and its sequence (termed protein redesign). Rational protein design approaches make protein-sequence predictions that will fold to specific structures. These predicted sequences can then be validated experimentally through methods such as peptide synthesis, site-directed mutagenesis, or artificial gene synthesis.

System and method for generating thermostable variants of a protein

A system and method for generating thermostable variants of a protein is disclosed. The system receives a three-dimensional structure of a target protein and identifies mutable regions, including solvent-exposed residues and loop regions. Conserved and active site residues are excluded from mutation through a fixed-position mask. A message-passing neural network (MPNN) generates mutant sequences at unmasked positions, executed under multiple temperature parameters. Design scores based on Shannon entropy and log probability are computed, and high-confidence variants are selected. Predicted structures for selected variants are evaluated using structural and sequence-based features to compute stability scores. A ranked list of thermostable variants is generated. Top candidates undergo molecular dynamics simulations to compute dynamic metrics such as RMSD, radius of gyration, SASA, and ddG, and are re-ranked accordingly.
