  1. An interesting summary from the editor:

    "AlphaFold’s success in protein structure predictions has led to similar attempts to predict interactomes. Here, the authors demonstrate that AI-based screens are very limited in discovering truly novel interactions compared to experimental screens, exposing open challenges in interaction prediction."

  2. Hace 10 años (9–15 marzo 2016), #DeepMind hizo historia: #AlphaGo derrotó al Go a Lee Sedol, nº2 del mundo, combinando aprendizaje automático y búsqueda avanzada. Pocos años después, su descendiente #AlphaFold resolvió el plegamiento de proteínas, un regalo para la humanidad. Nobel de Química 2024

  3. Indie na drodze do AI – Google i DeepMind przyspieszają naukę i edukację

    Czy da się skrócić lata badań do tygodni – i zrobić to na skalę kraju? Indie właśnie próbują, a do gry wchodzą najmocniejsze narzędzia AI od Google i DeepMind.

  7. CASP, the protein structure competition that rocketed AlphaFold to fame and a Nobel, is losing its NIH funding.

    David Baker on how CASP impacted his career (and Nobel Prize), and what's the latest on CASP's funding status:

  8. 😮 Charité-Studie analysiert 400 Millionen Jahre Enzym-Evolution!

    Mithilfe der #AlphaFold-KI hat ein Forschungsteam die Gesetzmäßigkeiten entschlüsselt, nach denen sich #Enzyme – die chemische Reaktionen in allen Lebewesen beschleunigen – weiterentwickeln. Die jetzt im Fachmagazin #Nature veröffentlichten Ergebnisse sind beispielsweise für die Entwicklung neuer Antibiotika relevant.

    Veritasium just released a great video of #ProteinFolding algorithms and #AlphaFold as part of the story.

    The Veritasium team releases some of the best science videos around: accessible, clear and accurate. It's a great service to communicate this breakthrough to everyone.

  17. In this work, we combine #crystallography, #cryoEM, #AlphaFold predictions, biochemical and mouse studies to unveil the 3D structure of vertebrate egg coat filaments and describe how cleavage of their #ZP2 subunit hardens the coat, establishing a permanent block to #polyspermy.

    A very big thank you to all co-authors, collaborators, and funding bodies for making this possible!
