What we can do with this data now is use methods such as cryo-em to see the "big picture", i.e. multi-subunit protein-protein interactions where we can plug in the Alphafold predicted structure into the cryo-em 3d density map and get predicted angstrom level views of what's happening without necessarily having to resort to slower methods such as NMR or x-ray crystallography to elucidate macromolecular interactions.
A small gripe about the alphafold ebi website: it doesn't seem to show the known experimental structure, it just shows "Experimental structures: None available in PDB". For example the link to the alphafold structure above should link to the 2GBL, 1TF7, or any of the other kaic structures from organism PCC7942 at RCSB. This would require merging/mapping data from RCSB with EBI and at least doing some string matching, hopefully they're working on it!
Thanks for that
Basically what I'm saying is that diet and genetics are a huge factor.
In any case, I'm happily married with kids and have never used dating apps, but if you believe in this research and want to increase your hand grip, improve your posture, and improve your overall upper body/core strength this is a dirt cheap way to do it that also requires low activation energy (e.g. no going to the gym).
