So pretty! (Chai-1 vs. Boltz-1)

Thrilled to announce Boltz-1, the first open-source and commercially available model to achieve AlphaFold3-level accuracy on biomolecular structure prediction! An exciting collaboration with Jeremy, Saro, and an amazing team at MIT and Genesis Therapeutics. A thread!

Here is how Boltz-1 (green), DynamicBind (magenta), and GNINA (blue) dock a collection of random molecules. GNINA, using a classical sampling algorithm (MCMC) hits all concave regions while the ML samplers have distinct preferences. Boltz is the most likely to induce a fit.

Boltz & Chai differ in one key respect: antibody-antigen modeling
November 30, 2024 at 9:33 PM
We test Boltz-1 on various benchmarks and demonstrate it matches the performance of Chai-1. E.g. on CASP15, Boltz-1 demonstrates strong protein-ligand and protein-protein performance achieving an LDDT-PLI of 65% (40% for Chai-1), and a proportion of DockQ>0.23 of 83% (76% for Chai-1)

MIT researchers introduce Boltz-1, a fully open-source model for predicting biomolecular structures

With models like AlphaFold3 limited to academic research, the team built an equivalent alternative, to encourage innovation more broadly

I am thrilled to release ProteinDJ: a high-performance and modular protein design pipeline. Our open-source workflow incorporates #RFdiffusion, #ProteinMPNN, #FAMPNN, #AlphaFold2 and #Boltz-2. It is a fast, free, and fun way to design proteins (1/5)

Join us next Thursday on December 5th @ Stata Center to hear from the main authors behind Boltz-1, Jeremy Wohlwend and @gcorso.bsky.social, about best practices for Boltz-1 and a vision for the exponential progress of AI in life sciences.

I guess we have Boltz-1 to thank for pushing all these other AF3 clones to adopt fully open-source licenses and models.

I've created a new plugin for #PyMOL (called PyMOLfold) that allows you to fold protein sequences right in the GUI. Simply select your model of choice (e.g., #ESM3, Boltz-1) and paste in your amino acid sequence.

AF3 you are so close to getting it... (maybe better with Boltz-1 with real lipids?)

So according to benchmarks, boltz, alphafold3, and chai-1 all do roughly as well at predicting protein structures in aggregate.

But I was wondering if they all tend to fail and succeed on the same individual proteins, or if some algos are better at some proteins.

Plotted from the boltz benchmark:
