🧬 AbMelt: Antibody Thermostability Predictor

Predict antibody thermostability from molecular dynamics descriptors

This tool uses machine learning models trained on molecular dynamics simulations to predict three key thermostability properties:

  • Tagg: Aggregation temperature (higher = more aggregation prone)
  • Tm: Melting temperature (higher = more thermally stable)
  • Tmon: Melt onset temperature (higher = more stable)

Based on the AbMelt methodology from Rollins et al. (2024).

Examples
RMSF CDRs at 400K Radius of Gyration Std CDRs at 400K All-Temperature Lambda Descriptor

About AbMelt

AbMelt combines multi-temperature molecular dynamics simulations with machine learning to predict antibody thermostability. The method uses descriptors computed from MD trajectories at 300K, 350K, and 400K to capture the dynamic flexibility of antibody structures.

Key Features:

  • Predicts aggregation and melting temperatures
  • Uses physically meaningful MD descriptors
  • Outperforms sequence-based methods
  • Requires only antibody Fv structure
