Proteins, directed by evolution, have elegantly solved a vast array of technical problems in nature. However, new challenges emerge in different aspects of our changing world, such as health, environment, and energy. Our laboratory aims to design new classes of functional proteins using computational algorithms to address these challenges. Computational protein design is one of the multidisciplinary research areas that has attracted substantial attention from pharmaceutical companies and technology giants in recent years. Deep learning algorithms have made breakthrough achievements in protein structure prediction, which bring our world to the verge of a protein design revolution. Computational protein design has the promise to transform biomedical research and the potential to tackle environmental and energy crises by integrating with synthetic biology methodologies, but it remains an emerging field of study in China. Our laboratory will develop new computational protein design methods and explore the applications of de novo designed proteins in numerous research areas. The primary research directions in our lab include 1. developing deep-learning-based protein design approaches; 2. designing functional protein devices for basic research and disease therapeutics and diagnosis; 3. designing novel enzymes to address environmental and energy crises.
