SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

mBER enables the design and refinement of VHH nanobody binders against protein targets using structure-conditioned generation and AlphaFold-Multimer guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structure-conditioned VHH binder design leveraging AF-Multimer conditioning
  • CDR1/CDR2/CDR3 loop redesign on existing scaffolds with hotspot targeting
  • Multi-chain antigen handling with chain-offset support for complex targets

Quick Start

Provide a target protein and run the mBER design workflow to generate a VHH binder against it.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design VHH nanobody binders against a target protein?

You can design VHH nanobody binders using structure-conditioned generation, which leverages AlphaFold-Multimer guidance to generate and refine binders against your specific target protein through a multi-stage design workflow.

Can I redesign CDR loops on an existing nanobody scaffold?

Yes, you can redesign CDR1, CDR2, and CDR3 loops on existing scaffolds. This structure-conditioned generation allows you to specifically target and optimize hotspots on the target antigens during the redesign process.

How does nanobody binder design handle multi-chain target antigens?

Nanobody binder design handles multi-chain target antigens by using chain-offset support. This feature allows the design workflow to process complex targets with multiple chains effectively during structure-conditioned generation.

Does AlphaFold-Multimer conditioning work for VHH binder optimization?

Yes, AlphaFold-Multimer conditioning is explicitly supported for VHH binder optimization. The design workflow satisfies AF-Multimer conditioning, sequence masking, and multi-stage design requirements to generate robust binders.

What are the limitations of structure-conditioned nanobody design?

Structure-conditioned nanobody design requires target protein structural inputs and relies on AlphaFold-Multimer conditioning. It is specifically tailored for VHH binders and CDR loop redesign rather than general antibody fragment engineering.
