This guide covers AlphaFold from the ground up across 12 structured parts. Here's a quick navigation map:
SectionWhat You Learn
Parts 1–2Why protein folding matters, the Levinthal paradox, CASP competition history
Part 3AlphaFold1 — distance map prediction with ResNets
Parts 4–4.5AlphaFold2 in detail: MSA features, Evoformer (48 blocks), triangle updates, IPA, recycling, training losses
Part 5How to interpret pLDDT, PAE, GDT — critical for not misusing predictions
Part 6AlphaFold-Multimer for protein complexes
Part 7AlphaFold3 — diffusion model, expanded scope to DNA/RNA/ligands
Parts 8–9Using the AlphaFold Database and running ColabFold practically
Parts 10–12Limitations, applications in drug discovery/vaccines, competing tools
The generated figures illustrate: (1) protein structure levels and the folding problem, (2) the complete AF2 pipeline, (3) the Evoformer block internals with triangle updates, (4) confidence metric interpretation, and (5) the development timeline through to AF3 and the 2024 Nobel Prize.
