Abstract

AbstractFunctional biologics design is a multi-objective optimization problem often with competing design objectives. We report on a novel deep learning based protein sequence prediction framework, ZymeSwapNet, that can be customized to handle a wide range of quantifiable design objectives, a current limitation of traditional protein design methods. We train a simple convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) on nonredundant curated protein crystal structures, using a set of geometric and topological features that describes a local protein environment, to predict the likelihood of each amino acid type for residue sites in the design region. While the model can be directly used to rank templates derived from mutagenesis campaigns, we extend the scope by developing a sequence/mutation generator that optimizes the desired multivariate distribution using a Monte-Carlo sampling. Using a case study – the design of a stable heterodimeric Fc (HetFc) antibody domain – we show that we can further include a Metropolis criterion to bias the sampling to enhance features such as the heterodimeric binding specificity, in addition to original sampling objective of enhancing stability. We demonstrate that ZymeSwapNet can generate stable HetFc designs, within minutes that had taken several rounds of rational structure and physical force-field based modeling attempts.
