AlphaFold aims to address the fundamental problem of protein folding, which has been a challenge in biology for over 50 years. The shape of a protein determines its function, but predicting this 3D structure from its linear amino acid sequence was long thought to be an unsolved problem. Traditional methods, such as X-ray crystallography and… Read more »
