AI Designs Lab-Ready Antibodies From Text Prompts
Drug discovery has always meant finding. Screening libraries. Keeping what survives. Semiconductors don't work that way. Neither do aircraft. You design them computationally before anything gets built. @saakohl left @GoogleDeepMind after co-developing AlphaFold2 to do the same thing for biologics. @LatentLabs_ Latent-X2 designs drug-like antibodies from scratch: developability, low immunogenicity, confirmed binding, zero-shot. Their autonomous agent Latent-Y went nine for nine targets, confirmed binders on six, at single-digit nanomolar affinities, 56x faster than expert estimates. You give it a text prompt. It gives you lab-ready sequences. Simon presents at @SynBioBeta 2026, May 4-7 in San Jose. SynBioBeta 2026 is May 4-7th in San Jose, California, you can learn more about the conference and get your tickets here: https://t.co/8abYWJ1GbK
