Physics‐based prediction of protein folding and unfolding rates: Examining the roles of fold topology and core packing

The (un)folding rates of natural proteins determine their native stability and functional homeostasis, making them important targets for protein engineering and design. From a prediction standpoint, the rates have been a long‐standing puzzle. We have known for decades that folding rates empirically correlate with prope...

Expanding Protein Structure Prediction into Conformational State Space

It is argued that structure prediction should be reformulated as a state-space inference problem: recovering not one conformation's coordinates but accessible states, their energetic and kinetic relationships, context dependence, and responses to perturbations.

WaterFlow: Prediction of Ordered Water Molecule Positions on Protein Structures

WaterFlow is introduced, a flow-matching-based generator model and confidence model for predicting the positions of ordered water molecules in protein structures that outperforms the existing state of the art at every precision level and quantifies the tradeoff between data quantity and data quality.
