protein-binder-design
Design new proteins that bind a chosen surface, using BindCraft's AlphaFold2-guided hallucination or the RFdiffusion backbone plus ProteinMPNN sequence pipeline. Use this skill to specify a target epitope by hotspot residue, trim a receptor to the region worth designing against, set up a design campaign, and filter the output on the in-silico metrics that predict experimental success — interface predicted TM-score, predicted aligned error at the interface, buried surface area, and shape complementarity. Also trigger on BindCraft, RFdiffusion, ProteinMPNN, minibinder, hallucination, inverse folding, hotspot residue, epitope targeting, ipTM, or de novo binder.

- Compatibility
- Requires Python 3.10+. The bundled scripts prepare target specifications and filter design metrics using only the standard library. Running a campaign needs BindCraft 1.5+ (MIT, from GitHub) with AlphaFold2 weights, or RFdiffusion plus ProteinMPNN, and an NVIDIA GPU — a single binder trajectory is tens of minutes.
