AlphaFold3 implements the full AlphaFold3 model and training code, furthering open-source structure prediction. We aim to accelerate progress towards a faithful, fully open implementation for the biotech community. This release focuses on single-chain prediction, with plans for ligand, multimer, and nucleic acid support.
This repository offers a practical, open-source implementation of a cutting-edge model. It leverages components from OpenFold and prioritizes speed and memory efficiency including the reuse of battle-tested modules. The project actively addresses discrepancies in the original AlphaFold3 pseudocode and fosters community input. The focus on optimized attention mechanisms like TriangularAttention contributes to performance.
- Single Chain Prediction: Core functionality focuses on accurate single-chain protein structure prediction.
