AlphaFold

DeepMind's AI system: Predicts a protein's three-dimensional structure from its amino acid sequence with atomic accuracy.

AlphaFold, developed by Google DeepMind, is a revolutionary AI system for protein structure prediction. In 2020, AlphaFold 2 effectively solved the 50-year-old 'protein folding problem' by achieving accuracy comparable to experimental methods (median error: less than 1 Angstrom) at the CASP14 competition. This deep learning model predicts complex 3D structures in minutes, a process that previously took years and hundreds of thousands of dollars per protein. The AlphaFold Protein Structure Database (a joint effort with EMBL-EBI) now provides free access to over 200 million predicted structures, accelerating research across medicine, drug discovery, and environmental science.
