These systems, called large language ... of amino acids within proteins and used the system's internal representation of what it learned to extract information about the structure of those proteins.

The AlphaFold breakthrough was made possible by researchers around the world collecting data since the 1970s on the structure of approximately 200,000 different proteins in a database. This ...

The AI tool AlphaFold has been improved so that it can now predict the shape of very large and complex protein structures. Linköping University researchers have also succeeded in integrating ...

In a new move, researchers have shown that protein design software can incorporate motion into its outputs. The resulting ...

This year’s Lasker Basic Medical Research Award recognizes the contributions of Demis Hassabis and John Jumper for their invention of the AlphaFold artificial intelligence (AI) system, which ...

The world of AI-powered drug discovery keeps expanding as the capabilities of machine learning grow. One approach that seemed unthinkable just a few years ago is simulating the complicated ...

an international public research institute that already hosts a large database of protein information. The latest data release gives the database a massive boost. The update includes structures ...

Meta’s AI model is a new protein-folding approach inspired by large language models that aims to predict the structures of the hundreds of millions of protein sequences in metagenomics databases.

BaseFold leverages Basecamp Research's purpose-built foundational dataset to significantly increase prediction accuracy of large, complex protein structures and small molecule interactions — it ...

Instead, they saw unfamiliar large complexes made up of multiple strands of the same RNA—structures they didn't know were possible without the support of proteins. Two of the RNAs assembled into ...
