By studying how each enzyme evolve to become faster and more stable, he is learning the rules for designing proteins that are both powerful and tough, and using them to guide the next round of designs.

Insightful keynote lecture by Tanja Kortemme at #ICBS2026.
She took us on a tour through modern de novo #ProteinDesign from the design of "simple" #protein binders to dynamic proteins and complex reaction #networks in cells.
Don’t miss tomorrow’s ProSE webinar!
We will be hosting @birtehoecker.bsky.social

The standard way to switch a cellular process on with a small molecule is an immunosuppressant. The Baker Lab designed a replacement from scratch – a macrocycle and a protein that binds it at 36 nM, neither borrowed from nature.
AI can now draft antibodies on screen. Reported hit rates run from 2% to 38%, but evidence is uneven. See the data: artificialscience.org/2026/10/ai-c...
From bench to field and factory: We produce high-purity recombinant proteins tailored for agriculture, industrial biotech, and academic research.

Reflecting on a my 2025 presentation at UCSD SACNAS. This event kicked off my 4th season of #STEAMulaterGames, sponsored by Levitate Bio. It's inspiring to see how far we've come, but the mission remains: building a molecularly literate community in Zimbabwe and beyond #STEMEducation #ProteinDesign
