Bayesian-Steered Structure Prediction of Mechanical Biomolecules Using Twisted Diffusion (opens in new tab)

Deep learning approaches have revolutionized protein structure prediction. These tools are trained using experimental data and recapitulate reported conformations, but there is great interest in predicting conformations that may be functionally relevant although experimentally underrepresented. Since many modern structure prediction tools use generative artificial intelligence diffusion models, we reframe the search for alternative molecular conformations as that of sampling from a diffusion ...
