Researchers have developed Chamaileon, a novel framework designed to address the limitations of current protein binder design methods. Unlike existing approaches that focus on single targets and states, Chamaileon enables multi-target and multi-state binder design by modeling cross-context binding landscapes. The system utilizes a training paradigm called In-Context Complex Co-Design (I3CD) for context-aware sequence-structure co-modeling and employs Mixture-of-Paths Sampling (MoPS) during inference to optimize sequences across various contexts. Evaluations on a new benchmark, CROSS, indicate that Chamaileon can generate sequences adaptable to diverse conformational landscapes and multi-target requirements. AI
