Our new database of protein structures could lead to discoveries that help cure diseases and clean the environment.
Today, we announced an AI breakthrough that accelerates protein folding — the process of predicting a molecule’s shape. Our researchers have used it to create a database of the molecular structures of proteins, which are the building blocks of life on earth. With more than 600 million structures, it’s three times larger than anything before. It’s also the first of its kind to focus on the largely unexplored world of metagenomic proteins. This new database could help scientists gain insight into the extraordinary diversity of the natural world and make discoveries that could help cure…
