So pumped for this to be out in its final form! After years of struggling with unstable and inactive membrane proteins, this story started from the quintessential pissed-off postdoc question: “Why the hell do I even bother purifying these damned proteins”? 🧪 #glycotime www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

More comments on Boltz-1 Mmseqs2-GPU integration is super fast. Helped a ton with an enzyme-substrate pair. It’s much better quality software engineering than most academic models and easy to use. Thanks @gcorso.bsky.social, you guys did great. I put some fun logos on OpenBioML you might find fun.
