Scientists Create Molecular Scissors with 10 Billion-Fold Reaction Speedup
Researchers used AI to design artificial proteases that can cut specific proteins.
Scientists from David Baker’s lab at the University of Washington used artificial intelligence to create artificial proteases, enzymes that cut specific proteins.
The artificial proteases have a 10 billion-fold speedup in reaction time compared to natural enzymes, according to the researchers.
