Open data to accelerate the discovery of new peptides.
OpenPep is building an open foundation dataset of peptide–protein binding to accelerate AI for peptide medicines. We measure diverse peptides across disease-relevant targets, share the data, and train foundation models for peptide discovery.
Research approach
-
Produce targets
Use cell-free protein synthesis to build a broad panel of disease-relevant targets.
-
Measure binding
Screen chemically diverse peptide libraries and collect quantitative binding measurements.
-
Train foundation models
Learn from the shared dataset and evaluate predictions on targets held out of training.
