De novo: no natural protein used as the starting point. Generative AI design: deep-learning models such as RFdiffusion or ESM3 that generate new proteins. Case 2: Snake venom, with fine print A 2025 Nature paper reported proteins designed to bind three-finger toxins.
Key takeaways
- Case 6: NL-201, the sobering one Neoleukin believed NL-201 was the first fully de novo protein evaluated in clinical trials.
- Some binders are becoming tractable to design.
- The one approved vaccine was designed using earlier methods.
