RAD Lab AlphaFold Module For researchers
Understanding protein geometries is essential to understanding a protein’s function, and thus essential to a range of disruptive research projects, from creating more sustainable materials to developing more effective treatments to diseases. For this reason, the “protein-folding problem” ranked for decades among biological science’s grand challenges—until Google’s DeepMind developed AlphaFold.Widely hailed as a breakthrough in biological research and a leap in the development of vaccines and synthetic materials, AlphaFold is an AI model developed by DeepMind for predicting the 3D structure of a protein based on its 1D amino acid sequence. DeepMind open-sourced the AlphaFold algorithm, code, and methodology with the scientific community in…
