Abstract

MOTIVATION: With the breakthrough of AlphaFold2, the protein structure prediction problem has made remarkable progress through deep learning end-to-end techniques, in which correct folds could be built for nearly all single-domain proteins. However, the full-chain modelling appears to be lower on average accuracy than that for the constituent domains and requires higher demand on computing hardware, indicating the performance of full-chain modelling still needs to be improved. In this study, we investigate whether the predicted accuracy of the full-chain model can be further improved by domain assembly assisted by deep learning.
