Peptone Raises €2 Million to Revolutionize Protein Engineering with AI

  • London-based computational physics company Peptone has raised €2 million in a seed funding round led by Hoxton Ventures

  • The company has developed a protein engineering operating system (PeOS) that uses AI to accelerate protein biotechnology research

  • The funding will be used to further develop the technology and reduce the risk of failure in early stages of drug development.

      • ProblemTechnology

      "Developing life-saving proteins is a complex and expensive process, with a high risk of failure in the early stages. Big pharma companies struggle to predict which proteins will be successful, leading to wasted time and resources."

      Solution

      "Peptone has developed a Protein Engineering Operating System (PeOS) that uses AI and computational molecular physics to analyze millions of protein features and predict the likelihood of failure. This allows for faster and more affordable development of new proteins, reducing the risk of failure and accelerating the development of life-saving treatments."
