Prediction of designer-recombinases for DNA editing with generative deep learning.

Nature communications
Site-specific tyrosine-type recombinases are effective tools for genome engineering, with the first engineered variants having demonstrated therapeutic potential. So far, adaptation to new DNA target site selectivity of designer-recombinases has been...

Forty years of directed evolution and its continuously evolving technology toolbox: A review of the patent landscape.

Biotechnology and bioengineering
Generating functional protein variants with novel or improved characteristics has been a goal of the biotechnology industry and life sciences, for decades. Rational design and directed evolution are two major pathways to achieve the desired ends. Whi...

PyPEF-An Integrated Framework for Data-Driven Protein Engineering.

Journal of chemical information and modeling
Data-driven strategies are gaining increased attention in protein engineering due to recent advances in access to large experimental databanks of proteins, next-generation sequencing (NGS), high-throughput screening (HTS) methods, and the development...

Directed Evolution of a Selective and Sensitive Serotonin Sensor via Machine Learning.

Cell
Serotonin plays a central role in cognition and is the target of most pharmaceuticals for psychiatric disorders. Existing drugs have limited efficacy; creation of improved versions will require better understanding of serotonergic circuitry, which ha...

Machine learning-assisted enzyme engineering.

Methods in enzymology
Directed evolution and rational design are powerful strategies in protein engineering to tailor enzyme properties to meet the demands in academia and industry. Traditional approaches for enzyme engineering and directed evolution are often experimenta...

One-shot optimization of multiple enzyme parameters: Tailoring glucose oxidase for pH and electron mediators.

Biotechnology and bioengineering
Enzymes are biological catalysts with many industrial applications, but natural enzymes are usually unsuitable for industrial processes because they are not optimized for the process conditions. The properties of enzymes can be improved by directed e...

Machine-learning-guided directed evolution for protein engineering.

Nature methods
Protein engineering through machine-learning-guided directed evolution enables the optimization of protein functions. Machine-learning approaches predict how sequence maps to function in a data-driven manner without requiring a detailed model of the ...

Machine learning-assisted directed protein evolution with combinatorial libraries.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
To reduce experimental effort associated with directed protein evolution and to explore the sequence space encoded by mutating multiple positions simultaneously, we incorporate machine learning into the directed evolution workflow. Combinatorial sequ...

A machine learning approach for reliable prediction of amino acid interactions and its application in the directed evolution of enantioselective enzymes.

Scientific reports
Directed evolution is an important research activity in synthetic biology and biotechnology. Numerous reports describe the application of tedious mutation/screening cycles for the improvement of proteins. Recently, knowledge-based approaches have fac...

Machine-Learning-Guided Mutagenesis for Directed Evolution of Fluorescent Proteins.

ACS synthetic biology
Molecular evolution based on mutagenesis is widely used in protein engineering. However, optimal proteins are often difficult to obtain due to a large sequence space. Here, we propose a novel approach that combines molecular evolution with machine le...
