The linear sequence of amino acids within a protein is considered the primary structure of the protein. Proteins are built from a set of only twenty amino acids, each of which has a unique side chain.

The new model, called BaseFold, enables more reliable 3D structure predictions for larger and more complex proteins and, according to the company, is “poised to greatly accelerate AI-based drug ...

The enormous progress over the past decade in analytical techniques to study large macromolecules has revealed a much greater diversity in protein primary structure than predicted based on the use ...
