Design protein binders against any target with predicted binding affinity
BoltzGen (MIT Jameel Clinic, 2026) is the successor to RFdiffusion for universal binder design. Given just a target sequence (no structure needed), BoltzGen generates candidate binder sequences with predicted ΔG binding affinity and confidence scores. SciRouter exposes BoltzGen via a single API call.
