Accelerating protein engineering: an integrated framework combines protein language models and epistatic landscape modeling

Describes MULTI-evolve, an integrated ML-guided framework that combines protein language models, epistasis learning, and multisite mutagenesis to design high-order multimutant proteins efficiently.

Key Takeaways
  • Protein function is encoded by amino acid sequence
  • MLDE has expanded accessible sequence space through in silico screening
  • MULTI-evolve is built on three conceptual components
