Revolutionizing Biologics Drug Discovery with AI: A Leap Forward with PEACCEL and Google Cloud

8 March 2024

We're thrilled to share an exciting milestone at PEACCEL - our disruptive AI discovery platform for biologics is setting new benchmarks in the pharmaceutical industry. By unlocking previously inaccessible spaces, we are identifying novel, life-changing drugs that were only possible in nature 1% of the time. Imagine the potential when we can screen 1 billion molecules in a single day!

🌐 A Game-Changing Collaboration: PEACCEL & Google Cloud 🌐

Our journey has taken an exhilarating turn as we were handpicked to join the Google Startup Program. This collaboration is not just an endorsement of our innovative approach; it's a catalyst for exponential growth and impact. Here's what this means for the pharmaceutical industry:

  1. Massive Scale Screening: From millions to over a billion molecules per day, pushing the boundaries of drug candidate identification from good to the BEST.
  2. Industrial Scale AI: Our platform's scalability is now supercharged, ready for real-world applications at an industrial level.
  3. Unprecedented Computing Power: Access to a vast array of GPUs, expanding our computing capacity to accelerate drug development, reduce costs, and bring life-saving treatments to market faster.
  4. Robust Infrastructure & Tools: Leveraging Google's state-of-the-art technology to enhance our research capabilities, foster innovation and drive forward the future of drug discovery.

How the success rate of protein engineering projects is influenced by epistatic effects? A comparison of 15 state-of-the-art approaches

29 November 2022

The recent development of structure prediction deep learning (DL) tools such as Alphafold2 (DeepMind), ESMfold (Meta) or ProteinMPNN (David Baker’s team) has revolutionized this area. Nevertheless, these DL tools are not suitable for predicting how individual amino acid changes alter protein function: they can’t predict epistaticeffects.

After protein folding powered by DeepMind and Meta the next challenge is to accurately predict epistasis ie. the impact of non-linear interactions of mutations within the protein sequence on the function.

Our recent review of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) strategies examines how epistatic effects influence the success rate of protein engineering projects by comparing 15 state-of-the-art approaches (see Table 4: https://link.springer.com/protocol/10.1007/978-1-0716-2152-3_15/tables/4) and provides a general workflow for non-experts when using such learning strategies.

After protein folding powered by Meta and DeepMind, the next challenge is to accurately predict epistasis

9 November 2022

Epistasis dramatically influences the success of drug discovery projects: The real lead drug candidate is missed if epistasis is not taken into account.

After protein folding powered by Meta and DeepMind , the next challenge is to accurately predict epistasis ie. the impact of non-linear interactions of mutations within the protein sequence. PEACCEL’s founder, co-authored in ACS Catalysis a critical review on epistasis with its partners at Leibniz Institute of Plant Biochemistry.
