==Introductions to AlphaFold==


*[[AlphaFold]]. An introduction and overview.
*[[AlphaFold]]. An introduction and overview.
*[[Theoretical models]] describes the breakthrough in structure prediction made by AlphaFold in [[CASP]] 14 (2020) and the continued pre-eminence of AlphaFold in CASP 15 [2022].
==How To Make Predictions==
*[[How to predict structures with AlphaFold]] when the [https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/ AlphaFold Database] does not already have what you want.
*[[How to predict structures with AlphaFold]] when the [https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/ AlphaFold Database] does not already have what you want.
*[[Joining AlphaFold predictions for halves of a molecule]], when the sequence is too long for AlphaFold to handle.
*[[Joining AlphaFold predictions for halves of a molecule]], when the sequence is too long for AlphaFold to handle.
*[[AlphaFold2 examples from CASP 14]]. A detailed analysis of several AlphaFold predictions compared with [[Empirical models|empirically-determined structures]].
*[[How to renumber PDB files]] in order to correct sequence numbers.
 
==Interpreting Predictions==
*[[AlphaFold pLDDT and expected distance error]]
*[[FirstGlance/How_to_get_average_pLDDT_from_AlphaFold_models|How to get average pLDDT from AlphaFold models]]: When any subset of residues (such as a sequence range) is selected (using <i>Find</i>) in [[FirstGlance in Jmol]], listing the found residues reports their average pLDDT.
*[[Calculating GDT TS]] the Global Distance Test Total Score, one of the metrics used for judging accuracy of predictions in the [[CASP]] competitions.
*[[User:Eric Martz/AlphaFold3 case studies|AlphaFold3 case studies]] includes a case that AlphaFold3 cannot predict.
 
==Examples of Predictions==
*[[AlphaFold2 examples from CASP 14]]. A detailed 2021 analysis of several AlphaFold predictions compared with [[Empirical models|empirically-determined structures]].
*[[User:Eric Martz/AlphaFold3 case studies|AlphaFold3 case studies]] (November 2024) includes a case that AlphaFold3 cannot predict.
 
==Uses of Predictions==
*[[Missing residues and incomplete sidechains]] suggests using AlphaFold predicted structures, in parallel with [[empirical models]] that have missing residues or atoms, when analyzing surface characteristics such as charge distribution ([[electrostatic potential maps]]), [[salt bridges]], [[cation-pi interactions]], etc.
*[[Converting AlphaFold3 CIF to PDB]]
 
==See Also==
*[[RoseTTAFold]]
*[[wwPDB]], the WorldWide Protein DataBank archive of [[empirical models]].
*[[ModelArchive]], a database of theoretical (non-empirical) models.
