Is #AI hitting a plateau in structure prediction? Help us find out at CASP17! 🧪🧬 Calling for Targets: Immune Complexes, protein - ligand complexes, RNA/DNA, conformational ensembles, membrane proteins, viral origins, and large complexes. The Rule of Thumb: If AF3 can’t model it, we want it.

The Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP) experiment is calling for prediction targets: Immune Complexes, Organic Ligand-Protein Complexes, Nucleic Acids and Complexes, Conformational Ensembles, Difficult Protein Structures and Complexes. Rule of Thumb: If AlphaFold3 can generate a high-quality model, it is likely not a CASP-grade challenge. If it struggles, we want it.

It's hard to describe how valuable CASP is to the structural biology & structure prediction field. The ever increasing number of prediction algorithms means independent assessment of their accuracy is vital. Please contribute interesting/tricky structural data if you can!

I attended a summer school on Spetses 🇬🇷 just as I was beginning my PhD. Looks like I will be going again in 2026 with "Lost in Integration vol. 2". Details to follow.

Looks like OpenFold3 has been formally released in a public "preview". Not quite on parity with AlphaFold3 on a few benchmarks shown, in particular for antibody interactions. All info on the github link. I am sure we will hear more about this from the developers github.com/aqlaboratory...
