Use this when
The default for single chains and small multimers. Faster than AlphaFold Server and with no daily limit. Choose AlphaFold Server instead when your system includes DNA, RNA or a ligand.
External tool. We link, we don’t host — nothing you enter on Biology 101 reaches them.
About this tool
