  • Publication number: 20210403946
    Abstract: Techniques for identifying production-fit amino acid sequence libraries are disclosed. The techniques may include accessing a statistical model relating an input amino acid sequence to production fitness of a protein having the input amino acid sequence, obtaining production fitness information for production-fit variant amino acid sequences, and generating an amino acid sequence library having amino acid sequences with predicted production fitness in accordance with the production fitness information. The techniques further include using a statistical model for a protein characteristic other than production fitness to generate an amino acid sequence library having amino acid sequences that are both predicted to be production-fit and have the protein characteristic.
