This lecture covers the engineering of proteins, focusing on elastin-based materials and protein design. It discusses the properties of elastin, the design of elastin-like polypeptides, and the process of making proteins in the lab. The lecture also delves into protein engineering, including the concepts of directed evolution and rational design. Additionally, it explores the prediction of protein folding using AI in biology and the incorporation of non-natural amino acids. The lecture concludes by highlighting the significance of proteins in material design and the potential advancements in de novo protein design.
