De novo design of a homo-trimeric amantadine-binding protein

The computational design of a symmetric protein homo-oligomer that binds a symmetry-matched small molecule larger than a metal ion has not yet been achieved. We used de novo protein design to create a homo-trimeric protein that binds the C3 symmetric small molecule drug amantadine with each protein...
