#67 AlphaFold and variant effect prediction with Amelie Stein


Listen Later

This is the third and final episode in the AlphaFold series, originally recorded on February 23, 2022,

with Amelie Stein, now an associate professor at the University of Copenhagen.

In the episode, Amelie explains what 𝛥𝛥G is, how it informs us

whether a particular protein mutation affects its stability, and how AlphaFold 2
helps in this analysis.

A note from Amelie:

Something that has happened in the meantime is the publication of methods

that predict 𝛥𝛥G with ML methods, so much faster than Rosetta. One of
them, RaSP, is from our group, while
ddMut is from another subset of
authors of the AF2 community assessment paper.
