Request : Please also consider making an 30-40 min version documentary of this with some more details of protein folding and nuances. I have watched AlphaGo documentary over and over again(i'm sure many others would have) , and still gives me goosebumps.
Totally agree on this! Really would support both financially and with any other possible efforts and resources the documentary like that. This is a unique topic to be covered!
As a protein chemist and structural biologist, I truly am impressed and congratulations to the DeepMind / Alpha Fold team. This is a major advancement and if you are taking requests, please present a solution structure for apolipoproteins. Their lipid-free state has defied analysis for over 50 years and it would be terrific to have a validated base structure to build upon.
I don't understand the distinction between AlphaFold and Rosetta. I'm not a structural biologist but hasn't Rosetta already been doing computational protein structural prediction for years?
@@serenolopez-darwin1975 Structural prediction software like Rosetta have been instrumental in identifying structural domains and conformational states that were not anticipated and led to re-evaluation of data and a more clear idea of the shapes proteins may be adopting and how they may be doing their jobs. But no insult intended to the Rosetta software team but the algorithm(s) used don't necessarily result in a model or set of models that conform to reality. Often the more likely answer is what shape a molecule can adopt, not what conformation it does adopt. What Alphafold does is increases the "accuracy" of the estimated shape tremendously, although I predict that proteins with multiple conformational states or that are highly adaptive will still be elusive targets. A good example are lipoproteins.
@@neousagi Yes I assume that even with google's computing power, IDPs are just too intense to simulate unless MD gets really accurate really fast. Rosetta seems to work fairly well for de novo design though, if only of super-stable proteins. I know it has the issue of trending towards extreme energy favorability while natural proteins don't always, does AlphaFold predict less stable crystal structures accurately?
@@serenolopez-darwin1975 To address your question, first there are three basic areas of protein structural analysis: X-ray crystallographers, computational predictive analysts, and wet lab empirical analysts. Consistently these approaches yield different results for proteins with multiple or dynamic structures. The primary reason is that x-ray crystallography identifies the ground state or unit structure that is most prevalent near ground state. Software algorithms are designed to reproduce x-ray structures (as reported here for AlphaFold) and empirical analysis generally evaluates the native fold, which is not necessarily ground state. Viral fusion proteins are another good example of molecules whose native fold is not the same as their ground state fold. So often empirical data will not match X-ray or predictive analysis and therein lies a core debate in the field. Because X-ray and predictive analysis can display a protein's structure down to atomic level resolution in beautiful ribbon structures, they present convincing impressions of how molecules might fold. So the breakthrough with AlphaFold is not so much that they solved all structures but that they have created ground state prediction that is accurate enough to match crystallographic data. To my knowledge, this does not solve the gap between X-Ray crystallography and empirical data analysis (chief amongst them are the NMR, EPR, and spectrographic scientists).
@@neousagi Ah, I've revealed the depth of my ignorance here, I didn't realize that crystal structures are also always ground state (I'm a computational scientist specialized in genomics and so am entirely unfamiliar with the actual experimental methods of XRC). I always heard that conformation to crystal structure was the gold standard of structural prediction but didn't realize the high-stability problem extended even beyond computational analysis to XRC as well. Thanks for the clarification, maybe now I won't seem so dumb when I talk to the proteomics folks lol

Congratulations to the whole team at DeepMind. This is an incredible achievement. If you could also create an ai to predict the interactions between different structures, that would open up even more possibilities for custom protein design.
Most people have no idea of how big of a deal this is. Generative AI gets all the press right now, but protein folding has the ability to cure basically ALL diseases and even aging. For instance, AlphaFold 2 was used this year to come up with a potential drug for liver cancer in 30 DAYS, when it used to take years and cost billions. People would spend their entire Master's Degree on analyzing _one_ protein. A recently retired GP (sometimes, the view from the trenches is clearer, ironically) says he is absolutely stunned at what this can do. I don't know the timeline, but there are already other protein-folding programs that are 60 to 1 million (not a typo) times faster than AlphaFold 2.
I studied Biochemistry in 2000, and macromolecules structure was one of the hardest subjects. Glad for this breakthrough finally arrived and looking forward to seeing real-life applicaitons and industry applied technologies soon.

They surely dumped millions and millions of $$$, time and dedication into this. You can't expect them to just give it away for free. This is not how the world works and they should reap the fruits of their labor.
3:05 How did the performance on CASP 9, 10 and 11 get *worse*? Wasn't last year's algorithm still up to the task? Or did the problem-setters choose more difficult proteins?
and they have seen nothing... this is just the very start.. imagine AI solving math problems by "playing" around with formula and structure. Lets do AlphaMath
And a software engineer that also understands how useless this actually is. It sounds cool, but it’s not actually useful given there’s a ton of effects fully ignored.
Remember learning about protein structures in school and asking exactly if we couldn't just figure it out from the base sequence since it was deterministic. Of course my teacher told me that would never be possible due to the complexity. Glad "never" just means a few decades in the scientific fields
Only yesterday I was reading a book about nanotechnology and authour has stated that predicting the protein folding is major problem and then today I saw this video.Solving this problem is going to open lot of opportunities in nanotechnology.
Today solving protein folding problem has bring great advancement to humanity on agriculture,biofuel production,understanding of diseases,drug development . Feel cool and good to hear.
The 2020s are off to a great start. Off the top of my head, we have first private human spaceflight mission (SpaceX), record speeds for vaccine development (Moderna, Pfizer, Oxford), protein folding breakthrough (AlphaFold), level 3 self-driving cars on the market (Tesla's FSD beta 5), M1 chip (Apple) etc. The list goes on. This is historic!

That's great work... congratulations Team AlphaFold.
Damn, this made me emotional and proud for our kind...
Structural biologists, computational biologists or computer scientists?

@@Shadowbladekokotil Was so caught up in the science that I didn't realize something so obviouse 😅😅😅
How stupid of me 😂
Incredible work, congratulations! Hoping for a full documentation like AlphaGo!
1:03 That Marriages band shirt!🤘
Congratulation ! Looking forward to a longer video/blog/talk with some more details for us non casuals. ;) Thanks !
The "next surprise" is the Paperclip Accumulator scenario.
3:05 How did the performance on CASP 9, 10 and 11 get *worse*? Wasn't last year's algorithm still up to the task? Or did the problem-setters choose more difficult proteins?
Exactly, it gets harder over time.
The fact that this video doesn't have 7 billion views is the reason why I cry myself to sleep at night.
Amazing stuff, we know when Demis say we have gone AGI we are in a knew world in the making.
And they thought it was just about chess & go :)
and they have seen nothing... this is just the very start.. imagine AI solving math problems by "playing" around with formula and structure. Lets do AlphaMath
@@Alexander-dt2eq you do not need an AI for this...
Congratulations. You solved the static problem. Now we need to find out how the proteins work and move, the dynamics.
this is legit one of the biggest advances in human history
this music is as otherworldly as the technology behind this project
37 structural biologists disliked the video 😂
🤣🤣🤣
And a software engineer that also understands how useless this actually is. It sounds cool, but it’s not actually useful given there’s a ton of effects fully ignored.

Well it's just the beginning... let's wait until 2022 and 2024 to see how all this progresses.
And here we are at 2024 and it’s great!
Folding at home team can finally shutting down their old smartphone and let it rest in peace in the drawer after so many hours of contribution
Me in CptS 121 writes an algorithm to reverse a string: This
It's ALL about the chart at 7:26. Amazing!
Remember learning about protein structures in school and asking exactly if we couldn't just figure it out from the base sequence since it was deterministic. Of course my teacher told me that would never be possible due to the complexity. Glad "never" just means a few decades in the scientific fields
Only yesterday I was reading a book about nanotechnology and authour has stated that predicting the protein folding is major problem and then today I saw this video.Solving this problem is going to open lot of opportunities in nanotechnology.
Next up: 95%?
due to exponential growth, should be 180% XD
@@SpikeTFA Let's make it happen XD
Next step is making proteins fold any which way we want them to!
probably 100%
Today solving protein folding problem has bring great advancement to humanity on agriculture,biofuel production,understanding of diseases,drug development . Feel cool and good to hear.
The 2020s are off to a great start.
Off the top of my head, we have first private human spaceflight mission (SpaceX), record speeds for vaccine development (Moderna, Pfizer, Oxford), protein folding breakthrough (AlphaFold), level 3 self-driving cars on the market (Tesla's FSD beta 5), M1 chip (Apple) etc. The list goes on.
This is historic!
I think most people don't realize their day-to-day work is so easy. Everything revolves around model and clicking fit.
Coming back in 2024 to say congrats your Nobel prize!!
This is going to change the world. Great work people 👏
Great job 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 and congratulations to the Deep Mind team! Could y’all please please please make a full-length documentary feature on this epic saga like you did with AlphaGo? That would be bloody awesome! People please like this comment if you agree! 🙏🏼
