NVIDIA Shares Breakthroughs in Accelerating Protein Design
AllThingsApx · x · 2026-07-16
NVIDIA's Digital Biology team has shared several new acceleration milestones in protein structure prediction and design:
- GPU MSA search speed has increased by 177x.
- OpenFold3 inference is now 4x faster on NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs.
- Fold-CP can scale to complexes with 32,000 tokens on 64 NVIDIA B300 GPUs.
- These capabilities are orchestrated into agentic workflows within the BioNeMo Agent Toolkit.
The original post also mentions collaborations with multiple partners, aiming to provide a faster end-to-end biomolecular design pipeline on the open BioNeMo platform.
