Congratulations to the winners of The Nobel Prize in Chemistry, David Baker for computational protein design and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper for protein structure prediction. Commenting on this achievement, Partner Camille Terfve says: “Machine learning has changed the game for protein folding. We have no doubt that much of drug design will be computationally driven in the future, and are already seeing this potential bear fruit in exciting ways in our daily work. Great to see more ML feature in the Nobels!” Jane Zheng Liu, Associate, also comments: "It’s great to see the Nobel Prize awarded for revolutionary new computational technologies in the protein structure field. These incredible toolboxes demonstrate the vast potential of AI in transforming drug discovery, and are unlocking new therapeutic approaches even for proteins previously considered to be challenging to target."
BREAKING NEWS The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences has decided to award the 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry with one half to David Baker “for computational protein design” and the other half jointly to Demis Hassabis and John M. Jumper “for protein structure prediction.” The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2024 is about proteins, life’s ingenious chemical tools. David Baker has succeeded with the almost impossible feat of building entirely new kinds of proteins. Demis Hassabis and John Jumper have developed an AI model to solve a 50-year-old problem: predicting proteins’ complex structures. These discoveries hold enormous potential. The diversity of life testifies to proteins’ amazing capacity as chemical tools. They control and drive all the chemical reactions that together are the basis of life. Proteins also function as hormones, signal substances, antibodies and the building blocks of different tissues. Proteins generally consist of 20 different amino acids, which can be described as life’s building blocks. In 2003, David Baker succeeded in using these blocks to design a new protein that was unlike any other protein. Since then, his research group has produced one imaginative protein creation after another, including proteins that can be used as pharmaceuticals, vaccines, nanomaterials and tiny sensors. The second discovery concerns the prediction of protein structures. In proteins, amino acids are linked together in long strings that fold up to make a three-dimensional structure, which is decisive for the protein’s function. Since the 1970s, researchers had tried to predict protein structures from amino acid sequences, but this was notoriously difficult. However, four years ago, there was a stunning breakthrough. In 2020, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper presented an AI model called AlphaFold2. With its help, they have been able to predict the structure of virtually all the 200 million proteins that researchers have identified. Since their breakthrough, AlphaFold2 has been used by more than two million people from 190 countries. Among a myriad of scientific applications, researchers can now better understand antibiotic resistance and create images of enzymes that can decompose plastic. Life could not exist without proteins. That we can now predict protein structures and design our own proteins confers the greatest benefit to humankind.

We really are experts when it comes to opposing patents at the European Patent Office and our enviable success rate speaks for itself. Not a single organic chemistry patent that we have opposed in the last 15 years has been maintained as granted following completion of an appeal stage, compared to the European Patent Office average of 17.1%.
