Article Synopsis
  • The text discusses a new framework called BioM3 that allows for the design of proteins using natural language prompts, integrating text and protein representation in a novel way.
  • This framework operates in three stages: aligning protein and text representations, refining text embeddings, and generating protein sequences using a specific model.
  • BioM3 has shown impressive results in various protein-related tasks and successfully generates proteins with characteristics similar to naturally occurring ones, validated through experimental tests.

Self-supervised pretraining on protein sequences has led to state-of-the art performance on protein function and fitness prediction. However, sequence-only methods ignore the rich information contained in experimental and predicted protein structures. Meanwhile, inverse folding methods reconstruct a protein's amino-acid sequence given its structure, but do not take advantage of sequences that do not have known structures.

Here, we report a rapid CRISPR-Cas9-mediated gene knock-in strategy that uses Cas9 ribonucleoprotein and 5'-modified double-stranded DNA donors with 50-base-pair homology arms and achieved unprecedented 65/40% knock-in rates for 0.7/2.5 kilobase inserts, respectively, in human embryonic kidney 293T cells.
