Use of artificial intelligence predict the structure of almost every known protein

Artificial intelligence has mapped out the shape of virtually every protein known to science. The breakthrough will help to tackle major global challenges such as developing malaria vaccines and fighting plastic pollution. Being able to predict a protein’s structure gives scientists a better understanding of what it does and how it works. The Existing technology alone did not allow them to fully understand the structure of the protein in order to see where the most effective transmission-blocking antibodies bind across its surface. Can this help to get the cure for chronic diseases?
