Natural language prompts open protein design to non-experts
Chinese collaboration creates tool that accepts plain-language requests for protein functions; Hugging Face hosts DNA-level counterpart
A large collaboration of researchers based in China has developed a tool that takes natural language prompts and produces proteins with a specified function, potentially making protein design accessible to a wider audience. In a separate development, Hugging Face has announced it is now hosting a tool that does similar work at the DNA level.
