Creation of light emitting proteins by AI.
AI designed a completely new enzyme capable of producing light through a chemical reaction. The artificial luciferase was only 13.9 kDa, remained stable above 95°C and showed catalytic efficiency comparable to natural luciferases.

In 2003, this year’s chemistry laureate David Baker succeeded in designing a new protein that was unlike any other protein. This was the first step in something that can only be described as an extraordinary development. A few of the many spectacular proteins created in Baker’s laboratory using his computer software Rosetta can be seen in the picture.
He also released the code for Rosetta, so a global research community has continued to develop the software, finding new areas of application.
Baker’s research group has produced one imaginative protein creation after another, including proteins that can be used as pharmaceuticals, vaccines, nanomaterials and tiny sensors.
Very happy to have this one published in @Nature today!! 🤩🤩 Can we dig deeper into the intricate and ancient evolutionary history of the flaviviridae by comparing not only genetic sequence but also protein structure? answer is yes!!
