Announced on 8 May 2024, AlphaFold 3 was co-developed by Google DeepMind and Isomorphic Labs, both subsidiaries of Alphabet. AlphaFold 3 is not limited to single-chain proteins, as it can also predict the structures of protein complexes with DNA, RNA, post-translational modifications and selected ligands and ions.

The team said AlphaFold 3, which powers its free tool known as AlphaFold Server, is 50% more accurate than the best traditional methods available and can produce predictions within seconds that ...
[17] [18] AlphaFold's database of predictions achieved state of the art records on benchmark tests for protein folding algorithms, although each individual prediction still requires confirmation by experimental tests. AlphaFold3 was released in May 2024, making structural predictions for the interaction of proteins with various molecules.
An alpha-helix with hydrogen bonds (yellow dots) The α-helix is the most abundant type of secondary structure in proteins. The α-helix has 3.6 amino acids per turn with an H-bond formed between every fourth residue; the average length is 10 amino acids (3 turns) or 10 Å but varies from 5 to 40 (1.5 to 11 turns).
A target structure (ribbons) and 354 template-based predictions superimposed (gray Calpha backbones); from CASP8. Critical Assessment of Structure Prediction (CASP), sometimes called Critical Assessment of Protein Structure Prediction, is a community-wide, worldwide experiment for protein structure prediction taking place every two years since 1994.
John Jumper, the senior researcher who heads the protein structure team at Google DeepMind, described AlphaFold 3 as “an evolution of AlphaFold 2, but a really big one that opens up new avenues.”

John Michael Jumper (born 1985) [1] is an American chemist and computer scientist. He currently serves as director at Google DeepMind. [2] [3] [4] Jumper and his colleagues created AlphaFold, [5] an artificial intelligence (AI) model to predict protein structures from their amino acid sequence with high accuracy. [6]
