ProtBFN was developed to address this challenge. ProtBFN is a 650-million-parameter Bayesian Flow Network (BFN) trained on a curated dataset of 72 million biologically validated examples, optimised for generating new protein sequences.

Exploring the Proteome with ProtBFN

Proteins are essential to life, driving nearly every biological process and performing critical functions in the human body—from building muscles to fighting diseases. Understanding these intricate molecules has long challenged researchers, but advancements in AI could change that.   What is ProtBFN? There are 20 proteinogenic amino acids that make up proteins. Arranged in specific sequences,… Read more »

Decoding our Genome with Nucleotide Transformers

DNA is the blueprint of life, the universal code of A, T, C, and G that guides the functioning of all living organisms, from humans to bacteria. Packed into the genome, this massive instruction manual varies in complexity across species and contains billions of letters that determine traits, health, and evolution. Small variations in DNA… Read more »
