enzymes.si
For AI-designed enzymes and proteins.
About the name
What enzymes.si means
Enzymes are nature's catalysts, and they are now designed rather than found. The 2024 Nobel Prize in Chemistry gave half the award to David Baker "for computational protein design". In February 2025 his lab reported in Science a set of serine hydrolases, enzymes built with deep learning that are unlike any found in nature and that speed up a multistep reaction.
Money followed the science. Cradle, a Swiss and Dutch platform for AI protein engineering, raised a $73M Series B, taking its total past $100M. enzymes.si is a short, concrete name for that business: designed catalysts for detergents, food, pharmaceutical manufacturing, recycling and green chemistry. Seven letters before the dot, one meaning, and a word every buyer in industrial biotech already uses daily.

Enzymes that eat plastic
The Baker lab names breaking down microplastics, without harsh solvents or fossil fuels, among the goals of custom enzymes. A company that designs and licenses enzymes for specific polymers, tested on real waste streams rather than clean lab samples, sells to recyclers, packaging groups and textile brands under pressure to close the loop.
Biocatalysts for drug manufacturing
Many pharmaceutical steps rely on metal catalysts and repeated purification. A designed enzyme can form the same bond in water, at mild temperatures, with fewer by-products. A design-and-scale service for process chemists, paid per program plus a royalty on volume, turns that chemistry into recurring revenue.
Design as an API
Most companies that need a better enzyme employ no protein designers. A platform where a food or detergent formulator states the reaction, temperature and pH, then receives ranked designs and lab-tested hits, makes protein engineering a request rather than a research project. Mid-size manufacturers buy per project.

Questions
About enzymes.si
Is enzymes.si only for biotech companies?
No. Most enzyme buyers are not biotech firms at all: detergent makers, bakers, brewers, textile mills, paper plants and animal-feed producers all use them. A company that designs enzymes sells into those industries, and a short, plain name helps a sales team explain the offer to a plant manager in one word.
How real is AI enzyme design today?
Real enough for peer review and venture rounds. The Baker lab confirmed in the lab that its designed hydrolases bind and cleave ester compounds as intended. Cradle reports a customer that raised P450 enzyme activity fourfold in three experimental rounds instead of ten. The remaining gap is scale-up and manufacturing, which is where a commercial company earns its margin.
Why the plural?
Singular "enzyme" reads like a textbook entry. The plural reads like a catalogue: a library of designed catalysts you can order. That matches a business shipping many enzymes, each tuned to one customer's reaction, rather than a single blockbuster molecule. It also leaves room for a marketplace where third-party designers list their own.
