Infrastructure and tools for non natural protein design
FY 2019-20 · 2019-07-01
Summary
We are expanding the infrastructure (both hardware and software) at the core of our computational platform for high throughput peptide (small protein) design. We are expanding the capabilities of our tools to further expand the range of projects we can take on. We are adding the ability to work with non-natural amino acids and flexible docking algorithms. We expect this to unlock prospects of discovering proteins that are impossible with existing methods.

Description (French)
Nous développons l'infrastructure (matérielle et logicielle) au cœur de notre plate-forme de calcul pour la conception de peptides à haut débit (petites protéines). Nous agrandissons les capacités de nos outils afin d'élargir davantage la gamme de projets que nous pouvons entreprendre. Nous ajoutons la possibilité de travailler avec des aminoacides non naturels et des algorithmes d'amarrage flexibles. Nous nous attendons à ce que cela débloque des prospects pour découvrir des protéines qui sont impossibles avec les méthodes existantes.
