AlphaPulldown2—a general pipeline for high-throughput structural modeling
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Summary: AlphaPulldown2 streamlines protein structural modeling by automating workflows, improving code adaptability, and optimizing data management for large-scale applications. It introduces an automated Snakemake pipeline, compressed data storage, support for additional modeling backends like UniFold and AlphaLink2, and a range of other improvements. These upgrades make AlphaPulldown2 a versatile platform for predicting both binary interactions and complex multi-unit assemblies. Availability and implementation: AlphaPulldown2 is freely available at https://github.com/KosinskiLab/AlphaPulldown.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
