La base de données AlphaFold contient désormais la structure 3D de plus de 200 millions de protéines. Couvrant tous les règnes du vivant, elle devrait révolutionner la biologie.

La structure de plus de 200 millions de protéines, issues également des plantes, des animaux, de l’être humain ou des bactéries, est désormais disponible en un simple clic aux scientifiques du monde entier. Cette révolution est possible grâce au projet AlphaFold, porté par DeepMind, une société experte en Intelligence artificielle détenue par Google, et l’EMB-EMI, l’Institut européen de bioinformatique.

Lancée en juillet 2021, la base de données d’AlphaFold contenait déjà la structure en trois dimensions de 350.000 protéines dont l’intégralité du protéome humain. En moins d’un an et au fil des ajouts réguliers, elle contient désormais plus de 200 millions de protéines issues d’un million d’espèces différentes. Presque toutes les protéines ont désormais une structure tridimensionelle, prédite par l’Intelligence artificielle.

Une nouvelle ère de la biologie
« En résumé, vous pouvez considérer qu’il couvre l’ensemble de l’univers des protéines. Nous sommes au début d’une nouvelle ère de la biologie digitale », a déclaré Demis Hassabis, P.-D.G. de DeepMind. AlphaFold est un outil précieux pour les scientifiques puisque, depuis son lancement, il a été utilisé dans plus de 1.000 publications scientifiques couvrant des domaines aussi variés que la recherche sur les microplastiques, la maladie de Parkinson, la biologie des abeilles ou la formation des glaciers.

Les prédictions faites par l’IA sont d’une grande précision : 35 % des structures de la base de données sont considérées comme « très précises », comparables à ce que pourraient obtenir les scientifiques en faisant de longues manipulations de cristallographie à rayon X ou de microscopie électronique. Ces 23 terrabytes de données ouvrent un champ presque infini de recherche scientifique.

  1. The other day, while I was at work, my cousin stole my apple ipad
    and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she
    has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it
    with someone!

    plagorism or copyright infringement? My website has a lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all

    I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head prior
    to writing. I’ve had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my ideas out.
    I do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first
    10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin.
    Any ideas or hints? Appreciate it!

    problems. Whenever I look at your web site in Safari, it looks fine however, if opening

    Apart from that, excellent site!

    I just wanted to provide you with a quick heads up! Besides that, fantastic site!

  19. When I originally commented I clicked the « Notify me when new comments are added » checkbox
    and now each time a comment is added I get three emails
    with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove
    me from that service? Appreciate it!

  20. you’re actually a excellent webmaster. The site loading pace is

    distinctive trick. Furthermore, The contents are masterwork.

  22. Hello I am so glad I found your website, I really found you by accident, while I was
    researching on Yahoo for something else,
    Anyways I am here now and would just like to say
    thanks a lot for a incredible post and a all round enjoyable
    blog (I also love the theme/design), I don’t have time to read through it all at
    the minute but I have bookmarked it and also included your RSS feeds, so when I have
    time I will be back to read more, Please do keep up the fantastic work.

  23. I think that everything published was very reasonable.
    However, what about this? suppose you added a little information?
    I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website,
    but suppose you added a headline to possibly get a person’s attention? I mean Cette IA a prédit la
    structure de 200 millions de protéines ! – SENE1 La Une
    du Sénégal is a little plain. You might look at Yahoo’s front page and note how they create
    post headlines to grab viewers to click. You might try adding a video or a related picture
    or two to grab people excited about what you’ve written. In my opinion, it could make
    your blog a little livelier.

  24. Asking questions are genuinely fastidious thing if you are
    not understanding something fully, except this post presents fastidious understanding even.

  25. Its such as you learn my mind! You seem to know a lot about this, such as you wrote
    the e book in it or something. I believe that you just could do with a few %
    to pressure the message home a bit, however instead of that, that is fantastic blog.
    A fantastic read. I will definitely be back.

  26. I’ve learn some just right stuff here. Definitely value bookmarking for
    revisiting. I wonder how a lot attempt you put to create one of these wonderful informative website.
