Designing binders for difficult protein targets

A. Moreau, L. Ibarra and others

Abstract

Proposing protein binders for surfaces that small molecules struggle to reach.

Some protein surfaces are flat and hard to bind. We used a structure model to propose binders for them.

A first round of designs was tested in the lab, and the results guided a second round.

We report what worked, what did not, and what we changed.
