Protein

Design novel protein binders, redesign selected residues in fixed structures, and screen protein libraries against targets.

ProteinDesign

Generate novel protein binders optimized for binding to a target structure. Binder specifications can be provided directly, uploaded as structure templates, or selected from Boltz-managed curated nanobody and antibody defaults. Results are scored by binding confidence (likelihood of protein-protein interaction) and structure confidence.

ProteinSequence Redesign

Redesign selected protein residues in one fixed CIF structure. Use the top-level type discriminator to choose binder redesign, with target and binder chain roles, or generic redesign. Every chain in the input structure must be assigned exactly once. Binder results include binding and structure metrics; generic results include structure and secondary-structure metrics.
