Can Claude Code design proteins? We're just about to release our wet lab API + SDK so we made a quick demo to test how agents can interact with protein design models and submit the proteins to our lab for testing. This closes the loop between the computational design... show more

The possibilities for AI-powered protein design are endless! In this case study we show how we used BindCraft to engineer a programmable maltose biosensor from scratch, including wet lab validation at Adaptyv of course. We envision a future where every biologist can make their own bespoke protein tools to investigate environmental samples, cell behaviour or create therapeutics. AI-based protein design can enable that future if powered by rapid wet lab validation. Once the cycle from design → test → application shrinks to weeks, the frontier explodes.

AI has solved software. Biology is the next frontier. We're hiring across every team at Adaptyv. We’ve built the best automated lab for protein designers to experimentally test their AI-designed proteins. Today, the most advanced protein design companies run their wet-lab work on Adaptyv, from the biggest biopharmas to frontier AI labs to dozens of virtual biotech startups. Demand has grown faster than we have, so we’re hiring across the board: • Bio: Research associates, scientists and lab technicians to develop and run new assays at scale. • Lab automation: Engineers and interns to onboard new lab instruments and scale our automation infrastructure. • Software: Product and backend engineers to scale LabOS, our internal lab orchestration platform, our API for agents and the data pipelines that turn messy physical-world data into clean results. • Partnerships, customer success and operations: Building partnerships with AI & pharma labs, making sure customers understand their data and can run more campaigns, making sure the company operations run smoothly

What seemed like an intractable problem is now possible: To design proteins with a specified nonlinear mechanical response, capturing complex folding and unfolding mechanisms in singe and few-shot computations. We present ForceGen, an end-to-end algorithm for de novo protein generation based on nonlinear mechanical unfolding responses. Rooted in the physics of protein mechanics, this generative strategy provides a powerful way to design new proteins rapidly, including exquisite and rapid predictions about their dynamical behavior. Proteins, like any other mechanical object, respond to forces in peculiar ways. Think of the different response you'd get from pulling on a steel cable versus pulling on a rubber band, or the difference between honey and glass. Now, we can design proteins with a set of desirable mechanical characteristics, with applications from health to sustainable plastics. The key to solving this problem was to integrate a protein language model with denoising diffusion methods, and using accurate atomistic-level physical simulation data to endow the model a first-principles understanding. ForceGen can solve both forward and inverse tasks: In the forward task, we can predict how stable a protein is, how it will unfold and what the forces involved are, all given just the sequence of amino acids. In the inverse task, we can design new proteins that meet complex nonlinear mechanical signature targets. Read the paper, led by LAMM@MIT postdoc Bo Ni, published in Science Advances: Why do we care about the mechanics of proteins? The mechanics of proteins are critical elements of many living systems - as evidenced in many studies of mechanobiology. Through evolution, nature has presented a set of remarkable protein materials with unique mechanical functions like elastins, silks, keratins or collagens that play crucial roles in biology. However, going beyond natural designs to discover proteins that meet specified mechanical properties remains challenging. So far, the only way to do this was to use existing evolutionary concepts or to manually alter proteins. With our new generative model we can directly design proteins to meet complex nonlinear mechanical property-design objectives. ForceGen leverages deep knowledge on protein sequences from a pretrained protein language model and maps mechanical unfolding responses to create proteins. Via full-atom molecular simulations for direct validation from physical and chemical principles, we demonstrate that the designed proteins are de novo, and fulfill the targeted mechanical properties, including unfolding energy and mechanical strength, and a detailed unfolding force-separation curves. ForceGen offers rapid pathways to explore the enormous mechanobiological protein sequence space unconstrained by biological synthesis, to enable the discovery of new protein materials with superior mechanical properties.

My lab, at Karolinska in Stockholm, is looking for a PhD student with a computational/quantitative background to work on probabilistic/generative models of protein (structure and sequence). The research will involve methods development and applications in vaccine design.

Proteins are the machinery of life. Scientists have cataloged billions of protein sequences—but their biology is still mostly unknown. Today we're releasing a world model of protein biology: a scientific engine for prediction, design, and discovery that consists of ESMFold2, ESMC, and ESM Atlas. Together, they're helping to open up a new way for researchers to design proteins and speed up scientific discovery. Our mission is to cure or prevent disease. To do that, we need to accelerate science. That's why we're releasing all three openly.

We're thrilled to present ESM3 in Science Magazine. ESM3 is a generative language model that reasons over the three fundamental properties of proteins: sequence, structure, and function. Today we're making ESM3 available free to researchers worldwide via the public beta of an API for biological intelligence. Trained with over a trillion teraflops of compute, this is the first time a model of this scale has been trained for biology, pushing the frontier of AI for biological discovery and engineering. ESM3 learns to represent the immense complexity of protein biology, learning from billions of natural proteins. From this training it developed the capability to design proteins, responding to complex prompts combining atomic level details and high level instructions to generate new proteins. ESM3 can explore protein space far beyond natural evolution. We prompted ESM3 to generate a fluorescent protein at a far distance from any known fluorescent proteins, searching an unknown region of protein space, to discover a new fluorescent protein. We estimate this is equivalent to simulating five hundred million years of evolution.

Automating the lab bench is the best thing we can do for AI in biology. Most experiments are still run by hand. Every biologist's handiwork is unique and every lab is a little different. So, biology faces widespread reproducibility issues. But, AI will demand more reproducible data than we can produce, and generate more ideas than we can test. Experiments must be communicated and executed in a standardized way to generate reproducible data. So, Tetsuwan is building a lab where users specify experiments in an exact syntax. These experiments are executed by an automated platform to generate transparent, reproducible output. The user never needs physical access to a lab. This is a biology lab you can use like a computer. Our platform, built and tested with pilot labs over the past two years, lets users configure automated workflows rapidly & precisely. Later this year, we will bring our first services online, focusing on functional screens for protein design. Alex and I met at Caltech, where she was one year my senior. We're building this company because we were little kids who wanted to be biologists that grew up into adults who resented the lab bench. We want biology to be about asking questions, not the painful and frustrating manual process of asking them. For those looking to receive updates on our pilot services, looking for a meaningful job, or just to learn more about our work, see the links in the comments!

Everyone is obsessed with 🦞 OpenClaw🦞 and moltbook and the idea of autonomous agents running your life or building societies. But what happens when you scale that up? What if, instead of agents checking your calendar and posting on Reddit, you had hundreds of agents collaborating to construct the building blocks of life 🧬 from "first principles"? We created a Swarm of AIs to design never-before-seen-proteins, far outside of what Nature has produced. They negotiate, debate, and optimize locally to design proteins from scratch, with decentralized logic. No training required, pure emergence! These proteins 👇 were designed by a swarm of AIs!
