Adaptyv
Adaptyv is a cloud laboratory platform that provides automated protein testing and validation services. Submit protein sequences via API or web interface and receive experimental results in approximately 21 days.
Quick Start
Authentication Setup
Adaptyv requires API authentication. Set up your credentials:
- Contact [email protected] to request API access (platform is in alpha/beta)
- Receive your API access token
- Set environment variable:
export ADAPTYV_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
Or create a .env file:
ADAPTYV_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
Installation
Install the required package using uv:
uv pip install requests python-dotenv
Basic Usage
Submit protein sequences for testing:
import os
import requests
from dotenv import load_dotenv
load_dotenv()
api_key = os.getenv("ADAPTYV_API_KEY")
base_url = "https://kq5jp7qj7wdqklhsxmovkzn4l40obksv.lambda-url.eu-central-1.on.aws"
headers = {
"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
# Submit experiment
response = requests.post(
f"{base_url}/experiments",
headers=headers,
json={
"sequences": ">protein1\nMKVLWALLGLLGAA...",
"experiment_type": "binding",
"webhook_url": "https://your-webhook.com/callback"
}
)
experiment_id = response.json()["experiment_id"]
Available Experiment Types
Adaptyv supports multiple assay types:
- Binding assays - Test protein-target interactions using biolayer interferometry
- Expression testing - Measure protein expression levels
- Thermostability - Characterize protein thermal stability
- Enzyme activity - Assess enzymatic function
See reference/experiments.md for detailed information on each experiment type and workflows.
Protein Sequence Optimization
Before submitting sequences, optimize them for better expression and stability:
Common issues to address:
- Unpaired cysteines that create unwanted disulfides
- Excessive hydrophobic regions causing aggregation
- Poor solubility predictions
Recommended tools:
- NetSolP / SoluProt - Initial solubility filtering
- SolubleMPNN - Sequence redesign for improved solubility
- ESM - Sequence likelihood scoring
- ipTM - Interface stability assessment
- pSAE - Hydrophobic exposure quantification
See reference/protein_optimization.md for detailed optimization workflows and tool usage.
API Reference
For complete API documentation including all endpoints, request/response formats, and authentication details, see reference/api_reference.md.
Examples

Important Notes
- Platform is currently in alpha/beta phase with features subject to change
- Not all platform features are available via API yet
- Results typically delivered in ~21 days
- Contact [email protected] for access requests or questions
- Suitable for high-throughput AI-driven protein design workflows
