• Abstract summary: We propose a novel method called ProtET for efficient CLIP-informed protein editing through multi-modality learning. Our approach comprises two stages: in the pretraining stage, contrastive learning aligns protein-biotext representations encoded by two large language models (LLMs) During the protein editing stage, the fused features from editing instruction texts and original protein sequences serve as the final editing condition for generating target protein sequences.

• Abstract: Proteins govern most biological functions essential for life, but achieving controllable protein discovery and optimization remains challenging. Recently, machine learning-assisted protein editing (MLPE) has shown promise in accelerating optimization cycles and reducing experimental workloads. However, current methods struggle with the vast combinatorial space of potential protein edits and cannot explicitly conduct protein editing using biotext instructions, limiting their interactivity with human feedback. To fill these gaps, we propose a novel method called ProtET for efficient CLIP-informed protein editing through multi-modality learning. Our approach comprises two stages: in the pretraining stage, contrastive learning aligns protein-biotext representations encoded by two large language models (LLMs), respectively. Subsequently, during the protein editing stage, the fused features from editing instruction texts and original protein sequences serve as the final editing condition for generating target protein sequences. Comprehensive experiments demonstrated the superiority of ProtET in editing proteins to enhance human-expected functionality across multiple attribute domains, including enzyme catalytic activity, protein stability and antibody specific binding ability. And ProtET improves the state-of-the-art results by a large margin, leading to significant stability improvements of 16.67% and 16.90%. This capability positions ProtET to advance real-world artificial protein editing, potentially addressing unmet academic, industrial, and clinical needs.

  We propose ProteinDT, a multi-modal framework that leverages textual descriptions for protein design. ProteinDT consists of three subsequent steps: ProteinCLAP which aligns the representation of two modalities, a facilitator that generates the protein representation from the text modality, and a decoder that creates the protein sequences from the representation. We quantitatively verify the effectiveness of ProteinDT on three challenging tasks: (1) over 90% accuracy for text-guided protein generation; (2) best hit ratio on 12 zero-shot text-guided protein editing tasks; (3) superior performance on four out of six protein property prediction benchmarks.
