AI-Driven Protein Engineering for High-Performance Industrial Enzymes
Optimize Enzyme Stability and Activity—Without Compromise
Many protein engineering projects face a common challenge: improving one property often comes at the expense of another.
For example:
- Higher thermostability may reduce catalytic efficiency.
- Increased catalytic activity may decrease structural stability.
- Improved solvent tolerance may affect substrate specificity.
- Enhanced expression may alter enzyme performance.
Traditional engineering approaches frequently require trade-offs.
Neoncorte Bio applies AI-guided protein engineering to optimize stability and activity simultaneously, helping organizations develop enzymes that are both highly functional and commercially manufacturable.
Why Multi-Objective Protein Engineering Matters
Industrial enzymes must satisfy multiple performance requirements simultaneously.
Successful commercial enzymes often need to combine:
- High catalytic activity
- Long operational lifetime
- Excellent thermal stability
- Broad pH tolerance
- Solvent compatibility
- Oxidative stability
- High recombinant expression
- Manufacturing robustness
- Optimizing only one characteristic rarely delivers the best commercial outcome.

Publications
Scientific Publication of Neoncorte Bio Team
- Modification of natural enzymes to introduce new properties and enhance existing ones is a central challenge in bioengineering. This study is focused on the development of Taq polymerase mutants that show enhanced reverse transcriptase (RTase) activity while retaining other desirable properties such as fidelity, 5′-3′ exonuclease activity, effective deoxyuracil incorporation, and tolerance to locked nucleic acid (LNA)-containing substrates.
- The transcriptomic data are being frequently used in the research of biomarker genes of different diseases and biological states. The most common tasks there are the data harmonization and treatment outcome prediction. Both of them can be addressed via the style transfer approach. Either technical factors or any biological details about the samples which we would like to control (gender, biological state, treatment, etc.) can be used as style components.
