Alterlab Alphafold

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-alphafold

Predict 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. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

Take alterlab-ieu/alterlab-alphafold from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
