Highly Accurate Protein Structure Prediction with AlphaFold
by DeepMind · free · Last verified 2026-03-17
AlphaFold 2 achieves atomic-level accuracy in protein structure prediction by combining evolutionary information from multiple sequence alignments with a novel Evoformer architecture and structure module, solving a 50-year grand challenge in biology. Its predictions have been released for virtually all known proteins and have accelerated drug discovery, enzyme design, and structural biology worldwide.
