Exploring new grounds: Introducing Suncadia Resort for Summer RosettaCon 2024

Hello friends of Rosetta,

We're thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter in our community's journey! After 20 years of wonderful memories at the Sleeping Lady for our annual summer conference, we're moving to a new venue in 2024. As part of our journey of growth and exploration, we are embarking on a new adventure at the Suncadia Resort, outside of Seattle.


Our community's evolution is a story of expanding horizons and embracing new possibilities. Suncadia Resort, with its state-of-the-art facilities and size, aligns perfectly with our commitment to growth, accessibility, inclusivity and innovation. This move is a way to test new waters while remaining true to our roots. It's an opportunity to explore new avenues, just as we encourage innovation and new ideas in our field.


The Sleeping Lady will always hold a special place in our hearts, and the decision to try Suncadia Resort was made with a spirit of adventure and curiosity. 


Join us from Aug 5-9, 2024 at Suncadia Resort for what promises to be an exciting new chapter. Let's make this conference a testament to our community's dynamic spirit, adaptability, and drive for new experiences. 


Warm regards,

The 2024 Summer RosettaCon conference committee

Introducing Rosetta Commons Foundation and Levitate Bio

Dear members of the Rosetta Community, The Rosetta Commons Board is excited to announce a significant milestone in the evolution of our community and a step on our path toward the Future of Rosetta. We have created a non-profit organization, the Rosetta Commons Foundation, which has established a wholly-owned subsidiary company called Levitate Bio. Levitate Bio provides cloud-based automated protein modeling and design protocols using AI & Rosetta, available through annual subscriptions. With a mission similar to the Rosetta Commons, the Rosetta Commons Foundation aims to foster a collaborative community that contributes to knowledge and tools for computational modeling and design of biological macromolecules. Appointed by the Rosetta Commons Board, the Foundation’s initial Board currently consists of Jeff Gray, Julia Koehler Leman, and David Nannemann. We expect this leadership structure to evolve soon, with a more permanent Board structure announced in due course. What is unique...

Announcing the winners of the Winter Protein Design Games 2024: Unleashing Innovation in Enzyme Engineering

Image
The Winter RosettaCon organizers want to thank Liberum Bio for sponsoring the experimental validation of the designs that they carried out in 8 days starting from digital sequences! Liberum Bio produces proteins at high yields in cell-free systems at a fraction of the usual cost and time via highly engineered strains and state-of-the art reaction mixtures. At Winter RosettaCon 2024 in Boston, the Rosetta Commons in partnership with Liberum Biotech hosted the inaugural Winter Protein Design Games , focusing on the design of Tobacco Etch Virus (TEV) protease variants. TEV protease is commonly used as a tool for sequence-specific protein cleavage, facilitating the purification of proteins without affinity tags. The competition challenged cross-institutional participating teams to engineer TEV proteases that exhibited enhanced substrate cleavage efficiency over the wild-type enzyme.  The competition was straightforward: design TEV protease variants that outperform the wild type in cl...

Announcing Rosetta's Transition to a Public Repository (including Licensing Changes)

Dear Rosetta Community and users of Rosetta, We're excited to announce that we have moved the Rosetta code repository to a public repository! We have made this move to honor our longstanding philosophy of sharing our work publicly and making it broadly accessible to scientists. This change marks a new chapter for Rosetta, where future developments will be more collaborative and accessible.  This move required crucial changes to our workflow and licensing terms that are designed to streamline contributions to our platform. The new repository is accessible at https://github.com/RosettaCommons/rosetta . Licensing adjustments: The repository's public status means that non-commercial users no longer need to explicitly sign up for a license to access Rosetta. However, despite being publicly accessible, Rosetta is not open source; redistribution restrictions and other licensing restrictions remain in place for all users. For our commercial users, the existing license will continue as...
