DMFold (also known as DMFold-Multimer) is a deep learning-based approach to protein complex structure and function prediction built on deep multiple sequence alignments (MSAs). The core of the pipeline is the integration of DeepMSA2 with the modified structure module of AlphaFold2. Starting from a set of query sequences, DMFold first creates deep monomeric MSAs using an iterative search procedure through multiple whole-genome (Uniclust30 and UniRef90) and metagenome (Metaclust, BFD, Mgnify, TaraDB, MetaSourceDB and JGIclust) databases, where multimeric MSAs are then constructed by pairing the monomeric MSAs based on species annotations. DMFold participated (as "Zheng") in CASP15 and ranked as the No. 1 method for protein-protein complex structure prediction, with accuracy significantly higher than the state-of-the-art AlphaFold2 program (i.e., "NBIS-AF2-multimer" in CASP15). Although DMFold focuses on multi-chain protein complexes, it also accepts single-chain monomer sequences (DMFold-Monomer pipeline). The server is freely accessible to all users, including commercial ones. Please report problems and questions at Zhang Lab Server Forum.

Copy and paste your sequence (in FASTA format) below (The server accepts both monomer and complex sequences with length in [30, 1400 AA] for monomers, and in [30, 2000 AA] for complexes with < 10 chains):
