Protein mutations

Caption

Using the MutRank framework trained with EvoRank, Danny Diaz and professor Andrew Ellington’s team are developing an improved version of a protein critical for the biomanufacturing of mRNA therapeutics and vaccines. In this example, the model recommends keeping the blue parts the same as the natural version of the protein and strongly considering mutating the red parts.
