Many drugs work by binding to a specific target in the body and blocking or changing what it does. An important first step in the drug development process is designing a molecule that can bind tightly to its target. Traditionally, that's meant weeks or months of expert work per target, sifting through a large number of candidates to identify the few that work.We wanted to test if Claude could successfully design novel protein binders from scratch (also called de novo design). With a protein design prompt wr ...
