Pinal is an advanced protein design framework that translates human design intent into novel protein sequences. It utilizes a two-stage process: first generating protein structures from language instructions, then designing sequences based on those structures. With a substantial parameter count of 16 billion and trained on a diverse dataset comprising 1.7 billion protein-text pairs, Pinal demonstrates marked improvements in both performance and generalization capabilities for novel protein structures.
