XenoBug: machine learning-based tool to predict pollutant-degrading enzymes from environmental metagenomes

mycolabadmin

XenoBug is a new artificial intelligence tool that helps scientists find bacteria and their enzymes that can break down harmful pollutants like pesticides, plastics, and petroleum products. The tool analyzes genetic information from environmental samples to predict which enzymes can degrade specific toxic chemicals. This discovery approach could make environmental cleanup faster and cheaper by identifying the right microbes for the job. Researchers can use XenoBug to get starting points for developing new biological cleanup solutions.
