PROTEIN DESIGN COMPETITION ROUND 2 The long awaited results are here -- and they don’t disappoint! 📈 We doubled the number of proteins we tested in our lab from 200 to 400! 🧬 Out of those 400 proteins, 378 expressed (95% expression rate!) 🚀 Out of those 378 expressed proteins, 53 did successfully bind the target protein EGFR (that’s a 14% success rate, more than 5x of the success rate of the previous round just 2 months ago!) 💪 The best binders reached single-digit nanomolar affinities which is within the range of the commercially sold Cetuximab antibody by Merck 😎 30 out of 130 protein designers managed to design at least one binding protein More details ⬇️
