TheSequence - 🧬 DeepMind’s AlphaFold Database
Was this email forwarded to you? Sign up here 📝 EditorialIt’s hard to think that it has been an entire year since DeepMind open-sourced AlphaFold, the model that astonished the machine learning (ML) world by predicting the structure of proteins based on a sequence of amino acids. AlphaFold can easily be considered the most relevant ML contribution to the world of science in the last decade. The initial release of AlphaFold was accompanied by a less promoted project known as AlphaFold Protein Structure Database (AlphaFold DB). This project aimed to provide an open dataset with the structure of proteins. Last week, DeepMind doubled down in AlphaFold DB with a new and incredibly impressive release. In collaboration with EMBL’s European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), DeepMind upgraded AlphaFold DB with the structure of nearly all catalogued proteins known to science. The number is about 200 million protein structures from plants, animals, bacteria, fungi, and other organisms. The dataset has also been released as part of Google Cloud Public Datasets making it even more accessible to researchers. By providing access to the structure of proteins in a data-structured, searchable format, AlphaFold DB can drastically advance research across different scientific areas ranging from biology, pharmaceuticals or food safety. Another impressive open source contribution by DeepMind. 🔺🔻TheSequence Scope – our Sunday edition with the industry’s development overview – is free.
