Thaumatin II is a high-intensity sweet protein whose limited thermostability restricts its industrial application. Using the previously evolved high-yield Thaumatin variant M-882 as the parental scaffold, we used an integrated rational design strategy combining HotSpot Wizard, FoldX, and PyRosetta. Candidate variants...

Alternative proteins and cultivated meat increase the need for flavour strategies that maintain savoury quality with less reliance on salt and conventional seasonings. Food-derived umami peptides are promising candidates, but their practical value depends on evidence beyond sequence prediction. With advances in virtual...

The enzymatic degradation of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) offers a sustainable route for plastic recycling but is often hindered by limited enzyme adsorption on hydrophobic surfaces. Inspired by carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs), which enhance enzyme performance on insoluble substrates, we developed a machine-l...
