Benchmarking AI Protein Structure Predictors Reveals a Persistent Bias in Multi-State Proteins
Protein structure predictors achieve high single-state accuracy, but it remains unclear whether they can recover functionally relevant conformational ensembles or account for the presence of ligands and/or binding partners. Here, we benchmark AlphaFold3, Boltz-2, Chai-1, and BioEmu on four canonical multi-state protein...
