🚀 MIToS.jl v3.2.0 brings cleaner substitution matrices, better MSA quality measures, easier MSA merges, and sturdier PDB handling — plus higher test coverage. 🧵

AlphaFold is amazing but gives you static structures 🧊

In a fantastic teamwork, @mcagiada.bsky.social and @emilthomasen.bsky.social developed AF2χ to generate conformational ensembles representing side-chain dynamics using AF2 💃

BioEmu is now easily accessible on Colab. Thank you @martinsteinegger.bsky.social and @jjimenezluna.bsky.social !!

@msftresearch.bsky.social
Run BioEmu in Colab - just click "Runtime → Run all"! Our notebook uses ColabFold to generate MSAs, BioEmu to predict trajectories, and Foldseek to cluster conformations.
Thanks @jjimenezluna.bsky.social for the help!

This is the first fully open source release of a AF3 like model. Awesome! Congratulations to the team.
Thrilled to announce Boltz-1, the first open-source and commercially available model to achieve AlphaFold3-level accuracy on biomolecular structure prediction! An exciting collaboration with Jeremy, Saro, and an amazing team at MIT and Genesis Therapeutics. A thread!

CASP16 will start later this year, so to celebrate that here is a short thread on the uncanny valley separating experimental structures & computational models of proteins. Even though the latter are extremely accurate, there are still some weird differences that are hard to pin down.  🧪🧶🧬🧵
