Abstract excerpt
Recent developments in protein design rely on large neural networks with up to 100s of millions of parameters, yet it is unclear which residue dependencies are critical for determining protein function. Here, we show that amino acid preferences at individual residues-without accounting for mutation interactions-explain much and sometimes virtually all of the combinatorial mutation effects across 8 datasets (R2 ~...
