Abstract: Presented herein is a computer-implemented method for protein engineering that constructs a three-dimensional gridspace around a protein. Different probes, simulating the interactions of amino acids are iteratively placed within the grid. Pair Interaction Energy is calculated using FMO technique for probe-protein interactions. An algorithmic process calculates the sum of PIEs, extending from each grid point to its neighbors, until a higher cumulative PIE is obtained. Grid points are then grouped into patches and an alignment process matches a derived query probe pattern from each patch against existing patterns of an internal database. Mutations are made based on the highest PIE probe-amino acid pairs from the matched pattern, leading to a modified protein. This process can be iterated for generating optimal variants and can be localized to any part of the protein for identification of patches.
