Summary
NIM for AlphaFold2-Multimer is NVIDIA’s NIM microservice for predicting protein structures from multiple protein sequences. It is the multimer/complex counterpart to NIM-for-AlphaFold2, with endpoints and deployment guidance for sequence-to-structure, sequence-to-MSA, and MSA-to-structure workflows over multiple sequences.
Detail
The current docs describe AlphaFold2-Multimer as a fast, accurate model behind a consistent NIM API for predicting protein structure in CADD workflows. The NIM can predict protein structures from multiple protein sequences, predict MSAs for multiple sequences, or predict a structure from pre-computed MSAs.
This page is useful when the query is about protein-protein complexes or multimeric AlphaFold2 workflows. It stays separate from NIM-for-AlphaFold2 because the input and use case are different: multiple interacting sequences rather than a single protein chain.
