Q1: (Recap) What is “designability” in the context of protein design? What is a potential problem in using methods like Alphafold2 refolding to measure designability? *
Q2: This week’s papers each describe a diffusion-based protein generative model p_theta(x). What specifically is x, i.e. what is the data distribution, and how are proteins represented? *
Q3: Choose one of the following algorithmic contributions of the Chroma model and describe how it works: 1) polymer diffusion process, 2) random graph neural network architecture, or 3) low-temperature sampling algorithm. *
Q4: What application of protein design are you most excited about? *
