Biomolecular functions are governed by dynamic conformational ensembles rather than static structures. While models like AlphaFold have revolutionized static structure prediction, accurately capturing the equilibrium distribution of all-atom biomolecular interactions remains a significant challenge due to the high computational cost of molecular dynamics (MD). We present AnewSampling, a transferable generative foundation framework designed for the high-fidelity sampling of all-atom equilibrium distributions, which is the first model to faithfully reproduce MD at the all-atom level. It uses a novel quotient-space generative framework to ensure mathematical consistency and leverages the largest self-curated database of protein-ligand trajectories to date, with over 15 million conformations. Statistically, AnewSampling consistently outperforms all prior generative methods on the ATLAS monomer benchmark, and the all-atom capabilities of AnewSampling enable close statistical alignment with ground-truth MD for evaluating atomic biomolecular interactions in protein-ligand dynamics. Furthermore, AnewSampling successfully recovers coupled ligand and side-chain motions in CDK2 systems, overcoming a major sampling hurdle inherent to conventional MD. AnewSampling enables rapid exploration of conformational landscapes prior to intensive simulations, elucidating fundamental biophysical mechanisms and accelerating the broader design of functional biomolecules.

"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.
