DRfold2 is a cutting-edge method for RNA tertiary structure prediction, built on deep learning and a novel composite language model. Given a query RNA sequence, DRfold2 leverages its pre-trained RNA Composite Language Model to capture co-evolutionary patterns and secondary structure information. Rotation matrices and translation vectors for each nucleotide are predicted through end-to-end deep learning frameworks, enabling precise global topology and base pairing modeling. The conformations are further refined using geometry-based optimization, significantly enhancing structure accuracy. Benchmark results show DRfold2 achieves up to 100% higher unsupervised contact precision compared to its predecessor. Moreover, DRfold2 complements AlphaFold3, providing statistically significant improvements when combined through our hybrid optimization framework. Check [Help] page for more details.
