Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

ProteinQure Inc.

$75,000.00

Infrastructure and tools for protein engineering pipeline

FY 2018-19 · 2019-01-04

Summary
We are building the infrastructure (both hardware and software) at the core of our computational platform for high throughput peptide design. These tools will allow us to design and evaluate small proteins in-silico given some objective. They represent the automation and improvement of workflows to enhance biologists and drug discovery experts. These tools will be able to analyze >10^4 proteins quickly and display relevant information for comparison. They will be automated across commercial cloud services and incorporate leading benchmarking algorithms.

Description (French)
Nous sommes en train de construire l'infrastructure (matérielle et logicielle) au centre de notre plate-forme informatique pour la conception de peptides à haut débit. Ces outils nous permettront de concevoir et d'évaluer de petites protéines in-silico en fonction de certains objectifs. Ils représentent l'automatisation et l'amélioration des flux de travail pour améliorer les connaissances des biologistes et des experts en découverte de médicaments. Ces outils seront en mesure d'analyser rapidement les protéines >10^4 et d'afficher des informations pertinentes à des fins de comparaison. Ils seront automatisés sur l'ensemble des services infonuagiques commerciaux et intégreront des algorithmes de référencement de pointe.
