Machine Learning Builds Artificial Proteins That Rival Nature’s Own

By developing machine-learning models that can review protein information culled from genome databases, researchers found relatively simple design rules for building artificial proteins. When the team constructed these artificial proteins in the lab, they found that they performed chemical processes so well that they rivaled those found in nature.
