BindCraft

One-shot design of functional protein binders

BindCraft couples RFdiffusion backbone generation, ProteinMPNN sequence design and AlphaFold-based filtering in a push-button pipeline that yields high-affinity binders in a single run. Inputs are a target structure and optional epitope constraints. It has produced experimentally validated nanomolar binders without experimental screening.
