Abstract
Understanding the fitness of protein variants with combinatorial mutations is critical for effective protein engineering. In this issue of Cell Systems, Chu et al. present TopVIP, a top variant identification pipeline that enables accurate picking of the greatest number of best-performing protein variants with high-fitness leveraging zero-shot predictor and low-N iterative sampling.
