Al designs are specific
Inputting a mis-matched undesired antigen (e.g., Rat
HER2, HER3, VEGF) into the model results in significant
performance decrease towards desired antigen
●
●
Al models outperform biological baselines
De novo designed HCDR3s achieve a 4-fold
improvement over random OAS baseline
●
Indicates the model's use of antigen information for
sequence designs
●
De novo designed HCDR123s achieve an 11-fold
improvement over random OAS baseline
