#AlphaFold DB now has TED integrated! It's a special one for me — my first project where I took ownership from start to finish, bringing together different teams to integrate domain annotations into AFDB. Huge learning experience, and I’m excited to finally see it live! 🧵(1/6)
🚀#AlphaFold Database update AlphaFold DB now integrates The Encyclopedia of Domains (TED) – a resource designed to systematically identify & classify structural domains within AlphaFold-predicted protein structures. ebi.ac.uk/about/news/updates…

The real fight club no one speaks of...
Finally a more intuitive way to learn pLDDT/pAE? 😎 sokrypton.github.io/protein_… (Character idea from @HannesStaerk & Alex Waldherr)

You probably heard about the last major release at #AlphaFold Database two weeks ago. We hope this new post will cover any further questions about the details of the release. If you have any other questions, please do reply here or email us your queries – afdbhelp@ebi.ac.uk
AlphaFold DB v6 (synced with UniProt 2025_03) is live! Here are the details: Totals v4 → v6: 241,070,489 entries. Since v4: +65,711,653 added, 39,324,993 removed, 276,539 changed (in sequence), 175,082,297 unchanged (metadata refresh, relabelled v6). Details 👇

The latest #AlphaFold DB update is out! We synchronised with @uniprot release 2025_03, predicted protein isoforms across all species, and provide MSAs used to generate each prediction. Proud of the team at the @PDBeurope for the hard work that went into this!
We’re renewing our collaboration with @GoogleDeepMind! We'll keep developing the AlphaFold Database to support protein science worldwide 🎉 To mark the moment we’ve synchronised the database with UniProtKB release 2025_03 ebi.ac.uk/about/news/technol… #AlphaFold

And, of course, TED wouldn’t exist without Prof. David Jones (@psipred) & Prof. Christine Orengo’s groups at @ucl, who developed and maintain this incredible resource. Their work made this integration possible! 🏗️ 🧵(5/6)

It's just the start! I’ll be sharing more on this new feature on AlphaFold DB, cool use-cases, and various other updates. Got an interesting domain example? Find a case where TED annotations shine (or break) in our new feature? Let me know! Follow for more updates! 🔜 🧵(6/6)

The Encyclopedia of Domains (TED) is out now! This here is some incredible work done to structurally identify domain annotations across all ~214 million #AlphaFold models at AlphaFold DB. This was a collaborative work between @CATH_Gene3D and the Jones group (@psipred) at @ucl.

Excited to be at #FEBS2024 Congress in Milano! I presented our latest work on integrating #AlphaMissense into #AlphaFold DB. This allows users to interactively explore all missense variants in canonical human proteins. Let's have a chat to learn how it can help you! #FEBS2024

Wow, these are incredible…
It's #PortfolioDay ! I'm Michael, currently a PhD student in the biological sciences and budding scientific animator and designer. Interested in the complexity of life at microscopic scales. Here's a few things I've made and my portfolio website is linked in the replies!

Spent a whole day learning #blender, and now I can make some pointlessly epic shots of proteins! Massive kudos to the amazing YouTube tutorials by @bradyajohnston! Thanks so much for upgrading my #protein visualisation skills! #b3d #sciart #sciviz #PDB
