Ligo Biosciences
Our Mission
We are building the next generation of deep-learning models for enzyme design to reshape the foundations of chemical innovation.
We develop generative models to design new enzymes for industry. By learning from nature and extending beyond it, our technology enables more efficient and scalable ways to make the materials and products the world depends on.
Our Technology
1/3
Uncovering Nature’s Secret Code.
Proteins are the engines of life. They fold into intricate three-dimensional shapes that determine how they interact, how they catalyse reactions, and how they influence health and disease.
Designed Beyond Nature
Our models are trained on billions of protein sequences and structures from diverse datasets. This vast knowledge enables us to design proteins at atomic accuracy. We are working towards true de novo design—generating entirely new proteins engineered for novel functions that do not exist in nature.
Intergrated Pipeline for Complete Enzyme Engineering
We integrate our core AI models with specialised software tools into a seamless, end-to-end pipeline for enzyme design. This automated approach enables rapid iteration and scale, delivering fully optimised enzymes ready for experimental validation.
