FAQPage Schema
How do I predict protein-ligand complex structures and binding affinity?ā–¼

Biomolecular structure and affinity prediction for protein-ligand complexes uses a diffusion-based CLI workflow on YAML inputs to generate structural models and binding evaluations. It outputs CIF, NPZ, and JSON files for downstream analysis.

Can I predict protein-RNA and protein-DNA multimer structures?ā–¼

Yes, multimer structure prediction supports protein-RNA and protein-DNA complexes alongside monomers and protein-ligands. It handles cross-chain constraints and template-guided predictions for complex biomolecular modeling.

How do I use MSA inputs for biomolecular structure prediction?ā–¼

Optional multiple sequence alignments (MSAs) can be generated via ColabFold and integrated into the YAML input schema. These MSAs guide the diffusion-based inference workflow to enhance prediction accuracy for complex folds.

What is the best way to validate binder designs and run SAR screening?ā–¼

Open biomolecular structure and affinity modeling enables rapid binder design validation and SAR screening. You can apply multi-pocket constraints to evaluate binding tendencies across protein-ligand complexes without closed-source tools.

Does this approach support template-guided predictions with cross-chain constraints?ā–¼

Yes, template-guided predictions support multi-pocket and cross-chain constraints for complex campaigns. This allows precise modeling of multimer interfaces and protein-ligand binding affinities directly from YAML inputs.
