DeepMind's AlphaFold 2 makes a breakthrough in biology by accurately predicting the 3D structures of proteins from their amino acid sequences. This achievement solves a problem that stumped scientists for decades—understanding how proteins fold into their unique three-dimensional shapes. AlphaFold 2's high accuracy in protein structure prediction has implications for disease research and drug development, offering new ways to understand the molecular mechanisms behind illnesses and to design novel therapeutics more efficiently.
