About 1,5 years ago I predicted in a little writeup for the ExC RESIST that ever more capable LLMs will soon make scientific review articles obsolete. From the initial results I have from #OpenAIs #DeepResearch, this is happening very soon…

Hi Joe, sure we have a script. I can send it to you

We are very excited that our in-situ structural analysis of the Ebola virus nucleocapsid assembly cascade is now published in @cellpress.bsky.social!

Join us in Hamburg, 7th-8th of May, at the CSSB! cssb-hamburg.de/symposium2025

Conclusion slide on RNA assessment

Conclusion of RNA assessors in #CASP16 - we are still in the “template” phase. Prediction of nucleic acids structure is still challenging for targets without templates, often relying on intuition. No big leap in accuracy since CASP15. AI based methods have not (yet?) made a major difference.

This is a super interesting question. It doesn’t get the dimer right, either

Stone conclusion by hearsay from day 1 at #CASP16 all top methods used AF3 somehow. Improvements are made by increased sampling (FFT etc), ranking of models still a challenge. Some improvement on antibodies.

Conclusions from RNA section at #CASP16, without a template all fail. All small targets had a template.

Conclusion for ligand session in #casp16, without a template methods fail

Histogram of performance of antibody antigen structure prediction

#CASP16: are we making progress in predicting protein-protein complexes?Not much in general, but ….

One method (Kozakov Vajda) shows great improvement in predicting structure of antibody-antigen complexes. 🧪 🧬
