Rational Design of an Epoxide Hydrolase From Spatholobus Suberectus: Enhancing Catalytic Activity and Thermostability for Efficient (R)-Styrene Oxide Production.

Biotechnology journal
(R)-Styrene oxide is a high-value chiral intermediate in pharmaceutical and chemical industries, yet its enantioselective synthesis remains challenging. Here, we engineered an epoxide hydrolase from Spatholobus suberectus (SsEH) to address its limita...

ActiMut-XGB: Predicting thermodynamic stability of point mutations for CALB with protein language model.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Predicting the functional impact of single-point mutations on protein residual activity, especially after high-temperature incubation, is critical in protein engineering. We present an innovative machine learning model based on eXtreme Gradient Boost...

Multidimensional computational strategies enhance the thermostability of alpha-galactosidase.

International journal of biological macromolecules
Alpha-Galactosidase has significant industrial application value in food processing, animal nutrition and medical applications. Microbial-derived α-galactosidases predominate industrial implementation due to high productivity, yet their inherent ther...

Catalytic mechanism and engineering of aromatic prenyltransferase: A review.

International journal of biological macromolecules
The prenylation of aromatic compounds significantly enhances their metabolic stability and bioactivity. Prenyltransferases, as essential biocatalysts, facilitate the regioselective transfer of prenyl groups from donors to aromatic substrates. This re...

Glycosyltransferases in human milk oligosaccharide synthesis: structural mechanisms and rational design.

Current opinion in biotechnology
Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) play a pivotal role in infant health through their multifunctional bioactive properties. Recent advances in synthetic biology have revolutionized microbial platforms for HMO biosynthesis, with glycosyltransferases (...

Deep learning-guided design of dynamic proteins.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
Deep learning has advanced the design of static protein structures, but the controlled conformational changes that are hallmarks of natural signaling proteins have remained inaccessible to de novo design. Here, we describe a general deep learning-gui...

Cell-Free Protein Synthesis as a Method to Rapidly Screen Machine Learning-Generated Protease Variants.

ACS synthetic biology
Machine learning (ML) tools have revolutionized protein structure prediction, engineering, and design, but the best ML tool is only as good as the training data it learns from. To obtain high-quality structural or functional data, protein purificatio...

Efficient Design of Affilin Protein Binders for HER3.

International journal of molecular sciences
Engineered scaffold-based proteins that bind to concrete targets with high affinity offer significant advantages over traditional antibodies in theranostic applications. Their development often relies on display methods, where large libraries of vari...

Accelerating antibody discovery and optimization with high-throughput experimentation and machine learning.

Journal of biomedical science
The integration of high-throughput experimentation and machine learning is transforming data-driven antibody engineering, revolutionizing the discovery and optimization of antibody therapeutics. These approaches employ extensive datasets comprising a...

Tackling a textbook example of multistep enzyme catalysis with deep learning-driven design.

Molecular cell
Enzyme design has struggled to emulate the complexity and catalytic proficiency of natural enzymes. Lauko et al. show that with the help of deep learning, the design of serine hydrolases that rival nature's ingenuity is possible.
