Alterlab Rfdiffusion

alterlab-ieu/alterlab-rfdiffusion

Generate 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.
