@DeepMind Now, @DeepMind has announced that it has used AlphaFold to predict the shapes of nearly every protein in the human body, as well as the shapes of hundreds of thousands of other proteins found in 20 of the most widely studied organisms! 🤯

@DeepMind These organisms include :

- Yeast
- Fruit Flies
- Mice etc

(5/n)

@DeepMind This is an astonishing breakthrough as it would allow biologists to understand diseases better and develop new drugs! 💉

(6/n)

@DeepMind DeepMind says it will predict and release the structures for more than 100 million more in the next few months! 💯

This is about all proteins known to science! 😮
