A new AI-based approach called DiffPALM (Differentiable Pairing using Alignment-based Language Models) has been developed by scientists from Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne. DiffPALM leverages protein language models to analyze and predict protein interactions with unprecedented accuracy. It outperforms traditional coevolution-based pairing methods and shows promise in predicting the structure of protein complexes. The approach has applications in basic protein biology, medical research, and drug development. DiffPALM has been made freely available to the scientific community [adf40632].
