A huge congratulations to David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper for winning the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry! 🏆 Their revolutionary work in protein structure prediction and computational protein design, including the incredible impact of AlphaFold, is transforming our understanding of biology and paving the way for groundbreaking discoveries. 🌟 At PDBe, we’re proud to collaborate with GoogleDeepMind to host and develop the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database, bringing these insights to scientists worldwide. Here’s to the future of protein science!
You may have seen that AlphaFold has been in the news recently as its creators, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper from Google DeepMind, were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry last week. AlphaFold is a revolutionary AI system that can accurately predict the structure of proteins. In 2021, European Bioinformatics Institute | EMBL-EBI entered into a collaboration with Google DeepMind to develop and release the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database – an open platform where anyone can search, analyse, and download AlphaFold predictions. Do you want to learn more about AlphaFold? We have a series of webinars that cover the impact of the technology on training and research in life sciences: https://lnkd.in/eYTwMwjm You might also like to take a look at our practical guide to AlphaFold: https://lnkd.in/eY8tFmCG #AlphaFold #AlphaFoldDB #proteinstructure #proteins #proteomics #Nobel #NobelPrize #Chemistry #ChemNobel #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AIinScience

EMBL congratulates David Baker, Demis Hassabis, and John Jumper on the 2024 #NobelPrize in Chemistry for their seminal discoveries and developments on protein structures. While David Baker developed computational methods that can create new proteins, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper helped develop the revolutionary AI tool AlphaFold, which can successfully predict the three-dimensional structure of a protein from a sequence of amino acids. Knowing a protein’s structure offers clues about the protein’s role, its link to health and disease, and its interactions with other molecules or drugs. EMBL partnered with Google DeepMind to make the AlphaFold 2 predictions freely and openly available to all, through the AlphaFold Protein Structure Database. The AlphaFold Database, which launched in July 2021, has a staggering 200 million protein structures, from over one million organisms. AlphaFold demonstrates the virtuous circle of open data – by sharing data, scientists are enabling future discoveries. The Nobel Prize | #chemnobel | #alphafold | Google DeepMind

The PCM and PTM remediation has started! The PDB archive is now including annotation of protein chemical modifications (PCMs) and post-translational modifications (PTMs) in a standardized way. Here is a summary of what to expect! In the Chemical Component Definition (CCD) files: - A new item in the chem_comp category: chem_comp.pdbx_pcm, stating whether the CCD is a known PCM/PTM. - A new category called pdbx_chem_comp_pcm, stating the PCM/PTM type and category, as well as on which positions in the amino acid and in the polypeptide it is expected to be observed. If this PCM is also a known PTM, it will have the Uniprot PTM accession ID. In the atomic coordinate files: -A new item in the pdbx_entry_details category: pdbx_entry_details.has_protein_modification, stating if the entry contains a PCM/PTM. -A new category called pdbx_modification_feature, providing an instance-level annotation of all observed PCMs/PTMs within the entry, as well as their type and category. Additionally to providing this new annotation, any protein modifications that are inconsistently handled within PDB entries are amended, to ensure that a given modification is consistently handled in the PDB archive. This includes a major clean-up of incorrect link records (struct_conn). All entries containing protein modifications are being re-released gradually from October 2024, throughout Spring 2025. ⬇️ Read more ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/eBEgdcSE

You can now access IHM structures at wwPDB DOI Landing Pages!! Structures determined by integrative and hybrid structure determination methods (IHM) are now available at wwPDB DOI landing pages for both released and on-hold entries, along with >225,000 experimental structures in the PDB archive. These pages present basic information about the corresponding IHM structure, offer download of model coordinates and validation files from the PDB archive (https://lnkd.in/dTXuumJT), and provide a link to the PDB-Dev resource that currently serves more detailed information about IHM structures, including the newly available links to PDB DOIs. ⬇️ Read more ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/esn3XP9k
