Abstract
Advances in artificial intelligence are revolutionizing protein design, and new methods are emerging rapidly. In this issue of Chem, Yeh and co-workers leverage recent deep-learning-based tools to create a series of improved de novo luciferases and color variants that successfully address the limitations of native luciferases.
