WHY THIS MATTERS:

🦠 Viruses are underrepresented in existing protein structure databases such as the PDB and AlphaFold Database

🤖 We combined AlphaFold2-ColabFold and ESMFold to predict proteome level structures for >4,400 human & animal viruses

💻 Searchable and browsable at: viro3d.cvr.gla.ac.uk

🎄 What's in the box? We've expanded the structural coverage of viral proteins by 30x compared to experimental structures. Using state-of-the-art AI prediction methods, we're shining new light on the building blocks of viruses 🔍

Well, isn't this nice. Lots of familiar faces & many new ones, plenty o' follows & happy vibes.

As means of further introduction: I'm a professional nerd & persistent optimist. You can find me geeking out over virology & evangelising about AI-protein structure prediction.
