alterlab-ligandmpnn
From the author
Design protein sequences around bound ligands, metals, and nucleic acids with LigandMPNN (Dauparas 2023) — inverse folding that conditions on non-protein context, so binding-pocket and metal-site residues are chosen to fit the actual ligand. Use when designing a small-molecule or metal binding pocket, redesigning residues that contact a ligand/ion/nucleic acid, or doing enzyme active-site design where the substrate matters. For backbone sequence design with NO ligand/metal context prefer alterlab-proteinmpnn; to GENERATE a backbone or scaffold a functional site prefer alterlab-rfdiffusion; to validate a design by refolding prefer alterlab-alphafold; to co-fold or dock the ligand prefer alterlab-boltz or alterlab-diffdock.

- alterlab-proteinmpnnAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsDesign protein sequences for a fixed backbone with ProteinMPNN (Dauparas 2022) — message-passing inverse folding that outputs sequences predicted to fold to a given structure, with fixed positions, tied/symmetric chains, amino-acid bias, and a soluble-model variant. Use when inverse-folding a backbone PDB into sequences, redesigning selected positions, imposing symmetry across chains, or generating the sequence step of a design→fold→score loop. For pocket/interface design WITH a bound ligand, metal, or nucleic acid prefer alterlab-ligandmpnn; to GENERATE a new backbone prefer alterlab-rfdiffusion; to refold and validate a design prefer alterlab-alphafold; for generative multimodal design prefer alterlab-esm.

- ligandmpnnaipoch/open-scienceInverse-fold a backbone with ligand, nucleic-acid, and metal context using LigandMPNN (Dauparas et al. 2023, github.com/dauparas/LigandMPNN). Reach for this skill to redesign the residues lining a binding pocket around a bound small molecule or cofactor, to design metal-coordinating sites where the geometry must be respected, or to get threaded designed-sequence PDBs out of any MPNN run.Design★ 5.4K
- proteinmpnnaipoch/open-scienceInverse-fold a protein backbone (PDB structure) into amino-acid sequence with ProteinMPNN (Dauparas et al. 2022, github.com/dauparas/ProteinMPNN). Reach for this skill to run sequence design on RFdiffusion backbones, to redesign one chain of a PDB while holding interface residues fixed, or to generate a temperature-swept set of sequences for downstream folding.Design★ 5.4K
- alterlab-rfdiffusionAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsGenerate de-novo protein backbones with RFdiffusion (Watson 2023) — a diffusion model for unconditional monomer generation, motif scaffolding, binder design against a target, and symmetric oligomers. Use when generating a new protein backbone from scratch, scaffolding a functional motif into a fold, designing a binder backbone to a target surface, or building symmetric assemblies; RFdiffusion produces the STRUCTURE, then alterlab-proteinmpnn designs its sequence and alterlab-alphafold validates it. For sequence design of an existing backbone prefer alterlab-proteinmpnn (or alterlab-ligandmpnn with a ligand); to fold a known sequence prefer alterlab-alphafold; for generative multimodal design prefer alterlab-esm.

- alterlab-alphafoldAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsPredict protein 3D structures with AlphaFold2 via ColabFold — MMseqs2-accelerated MSAs, monomer and AlphaFold2-Multimer complex folding, and confidence-based validation (pLDDT, pTM/ipTM, PAE). Use when folding a protein sequence or complex from FASTA, generating a predicted structure with confidence metrics, ranking models, or checking self-consistency of a design. For co-folding a protein WITH a small-molecule ligand or predicting binding affinity prefer alterlab-boltz; for antibody–antigen or one-FASTA multi-entity complexes prefer alterlab-chai; to LOOK UP an already-computed structure prefer alterlab-alphafold-db; for ESM embeddings or inverse folding prefer alterlab-esm.

- alterlab-boltzAlterLab-IEU/AlterLab-Academic-SkillsCo-fold biomolecular complexes with Boltz-2, an open AlphaFold3-style model — predict protein + ligand (SMILES/CCD), protein + nucleic-acid, and multi-chain structures in one pass, with binding-affinity prediction. Use when folding a protein together with a small-molecule ligand, predicting a holo (ligand-bound) complex or its binding affinity, or co-folding protein–DNA/RNA assemblies. For protein-only or protein–protein folding without ligands prefer alterlab-alphafold; for antibody–antigen complexes prefer alterlab-chai; to dock a ligand into a FIXED receptor structure prefer alterlab-diffdock; to look up an existing structure prefer alterlab-pdb.
