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.

ESMFold
ESMFold shows how AI can give us new tools to understand the natural world, much like the microscope, which enabled us to see into the world at an infinitesimal scale and opened up a whole new understanding of life. AI can help us understand the immense scope of natural diversity, and see biology in a new way. Much of AI research has focused on helping computers understand the world in a way similar to how humans do. The language of proteins is one that is beyond human comprehension and has eluded even the most powerful computational tools. AI has the potential to open up this language to our understanding. Studying AI in new domains such as biology can also give insight into artificial intelligence more broadly. Our work reveals connections across domains: large language models that are behind advances in machine translation, natural language understanding, speech recognition, and image generation are also able to learn deep information about biology.

Biohub
Biohub is an open platform for building on the world model of protein biology. It provides access to the ESM family of models, including ESMC, ESMFold2, and ESM3, along with interactive tools and developer resources for protein science research. ESMC is a state-of-the-art protein language model trained on billions of evolutionary sequences, building representations that capture fundamental mechanisms of protein structure and function. It powers functional analysis, structure prediction, protein design, and the exploration of evolutionary relationships between proteins. ESMFold2 predicts high-resolution, all-atom 3D structures of biomolecular complexes directly from sequence, with optional multiple sequence alignment input for enhanced accuracy on challenging targets. ESM3 jointly models sequence, structure, and function, enabling controllable generation of novel proteins by conditioning on any combination of these modalities.

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.
