Abstract:
Antibodies have no trouble binding specifically to nearly any protein, but how do they do it? We set out to discover the principle necessary to design mini-proteins that bind to arbitrary protein targets using only the target apo-crystal-structure as our guide. While we certainly can't match the broad spectrum binding of antibodies, for a certain class of protein targets (those with rigid, exposed hydrophobics), we've learned quite a bit and have found binders to 30+ targets so far.
