Benchmarking AlphaFold for protein complex modeling reveals accuracy determinants
Open accessPreprint — published as 10.1002/pro.4379 · Paper page
Abstract
High resolution experimental structural determination of protein-protein interactions has led to valuable mechanistic insights, yet due to the massive number of interactions and experimental limitations there is a need for computational methods that can accurately model their structures. Here we explore the use of the recently developed deep learning method, AlphaFold, to predict structures of protein complexes from sequence. With a benchmark of 152 diverse heterodimeric protein complexes, multiple implementations and parameters of AlphaFold were tested for accuracy. Remarkably, many cases had highly accurate models generated as top-ranked predictions, greatly surpassing the performance of unbound protein-protein docking, whereas antibody-antigen docking was largely unsuccessful. While AlphaFold-generated accuracy predictions were able to discriminate near-native models, previously developed scoring protocols improved performance. Our study demonstrates that end-to-end deep learning can accurately model transient protein complexes, and identifies areas for improvement to guide future developments to reliably model any protein-protein interaction of interest.

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.
