Show abstract
Accurate prediction of antibody structures is critical in analyzing the function of antibodies, thus enabling the rational design of antibodies. However, existing antibody structure prediction methods often only formulate backbone atoms and rely on additional tools for side-chain conformation prediction. In this work, we propose a fully end-to-end architecture for simultaneous prediction of backbone and side-chain conformations, namely tFold-Ab. Pre-trained language models are adopted for fast structure prediction by avoiding the time-consuming search for sequence homologs. The model firstly predicts monomer structures of each chain, and then refines them into heavy-light chain complex structure prediction, which enables multi-level supervision for model training. Evaluation results verify the effectiveness of tFold-Ab for both antibody and nanobody structure prediction. In addition, we provide a public web service for antibody structure prediction at https://drug.ai.tencent.com/en.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
