AlphaFold2

Atomic-accuracy protein and complex structures from sequence

Takes amino acid sequences, optionally with multiple sequence alignments, and predicts 3D structures with near-experimental accuracy using an attention-based neural network with Evoformer and structure modules. Handles monomers and multimeric complexes. Outputs a PDB model with per-residue pLDDT confidence and PAE maps.

AlphaFold2 is live on FoldForge — paste a sequence and press Fold.
