About AlphaFold
These exquisite, intricate machines are proteins. They underpin not just the biological processes in your body but every biological process in every living thing. They’re the building blocks of life. Currently, there are around 100 million known distinct proteins, with many more found every year. Each one has a unique 3D shape that determines how it works and what it does. But figuring out the exact structure of a protein remains an expensive and often time-consuming process, meaning we only know the exact 3D structure of a tiny fraction of the proteins known to science. Finding a way to close this rapidly expanding gap and predict the structure of millions of unknown proteins could not only help us tackle disease and more quickly find new medicines but perhaps also unlock the mysteries of how life itself works.

3decision
3decision® is a cloud-based protein structure repository designed for comprehensive structural data management and advanced analytics, enabling small molecule and biologics discovery teams to accelerate structure-based drug design.
It centralizes and standardizes experimental and in-silico protein structures from public sources like RCSB PDB and AlphaFoldDB, as well as proprietary data, supporting formats like PDBx/mmCIF and ModelCIF. This ensures easy access to X-Ray, NMR, cryo-EM, and modeled structures, fostering collaboration and enhancing research efforts.
Beyond storage, 3decision® enriches entries with metadata and sequence information, including protein-ligand interactions, antibody annotations, and binding site details. Advanced analytical tools identify druggable sites, assess off-target risks, and enable binding site comparisons, transforming vast structural data into actionable knowledge.
Its cloud-based platform facilitates collaboration among research teams.

Evo 2
Evo 2 is a genomic foundation model capable of generalist prediction and design tasks across DNA, RNA, and proteins. It utilizes a frontier deep learning architecture to model biological sequences at single-nucleotide resolution, achieving near-linear scaling of compute and memory relative to context length. Trained with 40 billion parameters and a 1 megabase context length, Evo 2 processes over 9 trillion nucleotides from diverse eukaryotic and prokaryotic genomes. This extensive training enables Evo 2 to perform zero-shot function prediction across multiple biological modalities, including DNA, RNA, and proteins, and to generate novel sequences with plausible genomic architecture. The model's capabilities have been demonstrated in tasks such as designing functional CRISPR systems and predicting disease-causing mutations in human genes. Evo 2 is publicly accessible via Arc's GitHub repository and is integrated into the NVIDIA BioNeMo framework.

NVIDIA BioNeMo
BioNeMo is an AI-powered drug discovery cloud service and framework built on NVIDIA NeMo Megatron for training and deploying large biomolecular transformer AI models at a supercomputing scale. The service includes pre-trained large language models (LLMs) and native support for common file formats for proteins, DNA, RNA, and chemistry, providing data loaders for SMILES for molecular structures and FASTA for amino acid and nucleotide sequences. The BioNeMo framework will also be available for download for running on your own infrastructure. ESM-1, based on Meta AI’s state-of-the-art ESM-1b, and ProtT5 are transformer-based protein language models that can be used to generate learned embeddings for tasks like protein structure and property prediction. OpenFold, a deep learning model for 3D structure prediction of novel protein sequences, will be available in BioNeMo service.
