ProteinMPNN

Robust sequence design for given protein backbones

ProteinMPNN is a message-passing neural network that designs amino acid sequences folding to a specified backbone with far higher recovery and in silico success than Rosetta. It takes backbone coordinates and returns diverse, designable sequences in seconds. The standard sequence-design step after backbone generation in modern design pipelines.
