alterlab-proteinmpnn

Design protein sequences for a fixed backbone with ProteinMPNN (Dauparas 2022) — message-passing inverse folding that outputs sequences predicted to fold to a given structure, with fixed positions, tied/symmetric chains, amino-acid bias, and a soluble-model variant. Use when inverse-folding a backbone PDB into sequences, redesigning selected positions, imposing symmetry across chains, or generating the sequence step of a design→fold→score loop. For pocket/interface design WITH a bound ligand, metal, or nucleic acid prefer alterlab-ligandmpnn; to GENERATE a new backbone prefer alterlab-rfdiffusion; to refold and validate a design prefer alterlab-alphafold; for generative multimodal design prefer alterlab-esm.
