精准锁定治疗疾病的靶点 人工智能助力蛋白质“按需定制”
Yang Shi Xin Wen· 2026-02-14 12:03
人工智能正加速走进越来越多的应用场景。在科研领域,人工智能也逐渐深入核心环节,助推更多研究 成果加速涌现。今天,我们将通过近期我国科学家的一些突破性成果,来看人工智能怎样助力科研。首 先,让我们走进西湖大学,看人工智能如何协助科学家设计蛋白质,并精准锁定治疗疾病的靶点。 蛋白质既是生命活动的重要执行者,也是疾病治疗与药物研发的核心靶点。目前,人类已经发现的蛋白 质有2亿多种,但仍然无法满足我们的特定需要。因此,科研人员需要像设计师一样,根据功能和目标 去设计出特定的蛋白质,而这一过程极其复杂。在西湖大学,科研人员开发了一种全新的生成式大模 型,可以帮助他们从零开始设计具有全新功能的蛋白质。借助这一人工智能大模型,团队已取得多项新 发现,例如找到了一种有望用于治疗阿尔茨海默病的全新蛋白酶。 人工智能可以基于海量数据,构建出多种蛋白质结构与功能之间的对应关系。科研人员只需要设定好目 标和条件,大模型就能进行计算推演,并给出可能的蛋白质设计方案,供团队筛选与验证。 不过科研人员也指出,人工智能赋能蛋白质研究目前还存在技术局限。由于大多数的大模型训练数据主 要还是静态蛋白质结构数据,因此目前还难以模拟出蛋白质复杂动态 ...
