Breakdown

AlphaFold 3 is a new AI model developed by Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs that can accurately predict the structure of proteins, DNA, RNA, and more, with the hope to transform our understanding of the biological world and drug discovery.

Key points

  • DNA etc interacts is key to understanding life's processes

  • AlphaFold 3 is a new AI model that can predict structures and interactions of all life's molecules

  • AlphaFold 3 is at least 50% more accurate than existing methods for some molecule interactions

  • It could aid in drug discovery by accessing capabilities for free via AlphaFold Server

AlphaFold 3 takes us beyond proteins to a broad spectrum of biomolecules. This leap could unlock more transformative science, from developing biorenewable materials and more resilient crops, to accelerating drug design and genomics research."
