RBX1 Binder Design
Targeting the E2-binding surface of RBX1 RING domain — an E3 ubiquitin ligase implicated in cancer. Agent read 50+ papers, identified key interface residues, then drove gradient optimization through AlphaFold3.

Brilliant Ideas, Blocked by Tools
Biologists spend years mastering biology. They shouldn't need to master AlphaFold3, ProteinMPNN, AutoDock Vina, PDB APIs, and Python scripting just to test an idea.
🧬
The Tools Exist — But Aren't Accessible
AlphaFold3, Boltz-2, ProteinMPNN, RF3 are state-of-the-art. But each requires specialized setup, coding, and interpretation. Most biologists can't access them without a computational collaborator.
⚙️
Fragmented, Manual Pipeline
Literature → PDB → structure prediction → docking → analysis → report: each step is a separate tool, a separate skillset, a separate week. No one has assembled this into a coherent workflow.
From Idea to Result Takes Months
A single design cycle — literature review, target analysis, structure prediction, binder design, scoring — typically takes 3–6 months with a computational team. AminoClaw does it in hours.

E3 Ligase Inhibition via AI-Designed Binder
RBX1 RING domain recruits E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes. Blocking this interface could suppress oncogenic CRL-mediated ubiquitination of tumor suppressors (p27, CDT1).

From Raw DMS Data to Engineering Roadmap
Agent analyzed the complete DMS landscape of Leaf-Branch Compost Cutinase — a thermophilic PET-degrading enzyme — and produced a ranked engineering strategy.
🔥
25 Elite Hotspot Positions Identified
Positions where >70% of amino acid substitutions enhance activity. Positions 83, 50, 10, 183, 20 are top priority targets.
Top mutation: N215H → +1.84× activity
🧊
3 Critical Coldspot Positions Protected
Positions 92, 212, 133 are structurally or catalytically essential — likely the catalytic triad (Ser131-His208-Asp176) region. Must avoid in engineering.
Any substitution → >50% activity loss
🔬
MULTI-evolve Strategy Recommended
Agent identified compatibility with the MULTI-evolve framework (Tran et al., Science 2026): train neural net on pairwise epistasis data → predict optimal 3–7 mutation combinations.
Estimated: 256× improvement potential (cf. APEX2)
