Blind RNA 3D ensemble prediction challenge opens for SAMURI ribozyme
anshulkundaje · x · 2026-07-25
A blind challenge has opened for RNA 3D ensemble prediction on the ligand-free SAMURI ribozyme displayed on a group II intron scaffold.
- The post highlights that RNA flexibility should be modeled as an ensemble, not a single static structure.
- It explicitly welcomes both molecular dynamics (MD) and deep learning methods.
- The deadline is Aug. 22, 2026.
- The attached image shows multiple candidate RNA conformations, underscoring the ensemble nature of the task.
