METHOD AND SYSTEM TO IDENTIFY NATURAL PRODUCTS FROM MASS SPECTROMETRY AND GENOMICS DATA

A method and system is for receiving data representing gene clusters, the gene clusters including one or more genes configured to encode one or more polypeptides or other small molecules; accessing a machine learning model, the machine learning model being trained with a training dataset that associates the gene clusters to structures of one or more small molecules represented in the data; applying the machine learning model to the data representing the gene clusters; identifying, based on applying the machine learning model, one or more monomers associated with at least one gene cluster represented in the data; and determining a structure for a natural product including the one or more monomers.

COMPUTER ASSISTED ANTIBODY RE-EPITOPING

The present invention is directed to a method for generating a library of antigen binding molecules for screening for binding to an epitope of interest, said method comprising: a. selecting a template antigen-binding molecule from a set of possible template antigen binding molecules wherein said selected template does not specifically bind the epitope of interest but is known to specifically bind another epitope; b. selecting at least one residue position in said template antigen-binding molecule for mutation; and c. selecting at least one variant residue to substitute at the at least one residue position selected in b; such that a library containing a plurality of variants of said template is generated.

GENERATING ANTI-INFECTIVE DESIGN SPACES FOR SELECTING DRUG CANDIDATES

In one aspect, a method includes generating a design space for a peptide for an application. The generating includes identifying sequences for the peptide, and updating the sequences by determining, for each of the sequences, a respective set of activities pertaining to the application. The updating produces updated sequences each having updated respective activities. The method includes generating, based on the updated sequences, a solution space within the design space. The solution space includes a target subset of the updated sequences. The method includes performing, using a machine learning model to process the solution space, trials to identify a candidate drug compound that represents a sequence having a level of activity that exceeds a threshold level, and determining metrics pertaining to the machine learning model and a second machine learning model that performs the trials.
