Predicting protein conformational flexibility remains a major challenge in structural biology. While we can now accurately model static protein structures, understanding their dynamics is still difficult, largely due to a lack of suitable training data.

It’s an exciting time in protein design! 🧬✨ But much of the therapeutic potential—especially for antibodies—remains untapped. Why? 🤔

Antibodies seem like ideal candidates for design! 💉
Here’s a quick thread summarising our new review paper on the state of antibody structure prediction. 👇

Challenges and compromises: Predicting unbound antibody structures with deep learning
Therapeutic antibodies are manufactured, stored and administered in the free state; this makes understanding the unbound form key to designing and imp…
