GUIFold - A graphical user interface for local AlphaFold2

Abstract

GUIFold is a graphical user interface for the open-source structure prediction pipeline AlphaFold2. A particular emphasis lies on tracking prediction jobs in a database as well as user-friendly submission to queueing systems. GUIFold is built on top of a modified AlphaFold2 pipeline that primarily allows more control of the feature generation step. Additionally, the application provides an evaluation pipeline to rank predictions and visualize confidence metrics. GUIFold can be installed along with AlphaFold2 in a virtual environment and, after initial setup, allows running jobs without particular technical expertise.</jats:p
