New PDB Depositions vs. Their Blind AlphaFold Predictions — A Running Test of “Is Folding Solved?”

Examples — AlphaFold's blind spots, up close

AlphaFraud hunts for confident failures, but it is an even-handed analyzer — so we open with a positive control: a protein AlphaFold had never seen, yet predicted almost perfectly (the metrics certify it with a near-zero fraud score). Below it, every week we automatically catch the most striking confidently-wrong structure from that week's PDB release, and beneath the weekly archive sit our hand-curated deep-dives into the worst offenders.

When AlphaFold gets it right — the control

AlphaFraud exists to catch confident failures — so here is the opposite, on purpose. This is a genuine positive control: a protein AlphaFold had never seen, predicted almost perfectly. It proves two things at once — that AlphaFold can be brilliantly accurate, and that AlphaFraud's metrics certify a good prediction as good (near-zero fraud) rather than only finding bad ones.

Protein Artemis DCLRE1C

Excellent match — AlphaFold nailed it novelwell-calibrated1.5 Å X-ray Q96SD1 ↗

AlphaFold's blind prediction of a novel, disease-critical nuclease matched the 1.5 Å crystal structure to 0.45 Å RMSD — the positive control that shows the tool is genuinely accurate, and that AlphaFraud certifies good predictions, not just bad ones.

🧬 Structure & architecture

Artemis (gene DCLRE1C, UniProt Q96SD1) is a structure-specific endonuclease whose catalytic core belongs to the metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) fold, fused to a β-CASP domain. This MBL/β-CASP combination defines a nuclease superfamily shared with SNM1A, SNM1B/Apollo and CPSF73, in which the two domains pack together to build a single composite active site rather than acting as independent modules. The MBL domain contributes a shallow αβ/βα sandwich that cradles catalytic metal ions (Zn²⁺), while the β-CASP insertion supplies additional coordinating residues and closes over the metal centre to form a deep, substrate-binding cleft suited to nicking hairpin and branched DNA.

PDB 6TT5 captures this catalytic domain (roughly the first 361 residues) at 1.5 Å resolution — a well-ordered, compact single-domain fold with no oligomeric assembly, no domain-swapping and no conformational ambiguity in the crystal. Full-length Artemis extends well beyond this core with a long C-terminal region that is intrinsically disordered and regulatory, phosphorylated by DNA-PKcs and ATM. That tail is not part of the crystallised, folded domain modelled here — and it is exactly the kind of flexible extension AlphaFold typically flags with low pLDDT rather than mis-predicting with false confidence.

✅ Why AlphaFold gets it right

Every headline metric on this entry points the same way. Global superposition of AlphaFold's blind model against the 6TT5 experimental structure gives a TM-score of 0.996 and GDT_TS of 99.2 (GDT_HA 96.0), with a Cα-RMSD of just 0.45 Å across the full catalytic domain. Locally the agreement is equally tight: lDDT 0.985 and secondary-structure agreement Q3 92.5%, meaning essentially every strand, helix and loop is placed and oriented correctly — not just the domain's rough envelope. This was achieved on a sequence with only 29% identity to the closest structure in AlphaFold's pre-cutoff training set (6TT5 was deposited in 2019, after AlphaFold2's 2018-04-30 cutoff), so the model was not recalling a near-identical template — it was genuinely generalising from evolutionary and physical constraints.

Confidence and correctness are also well matched here, which is the part AlphaFraud is built to check. Mean pLDDT was 95.2, and that confidence was earned: the pLDDT↔lDDT correlation is +0.56, the PAE-overconfident fraction is 0.00, and the confidently-wrong-residue fraction is 0.00 — nowhere did the model report high confidence in a region it actually got wrong. Structurally this is the regime AlphaFold is built for: a single, compact, evolutionarily well-conserved globular enzyme domain with a deep multiple-sequence alignment, one dominant native conformation, and none of the hinge motion, domain-swapping, assembly or amyloid ambiguity that trips it up elsewhere. AlphaFraud's composite score reflects that cleanly: FRAUD = 0.020, against a backdrop where the site's worst offenders score 0.8–0.95. The pipeline is not tuned to find fraud everywhere; here it correctly recognises that there is none.

🩺 Biology & disease

Artemis sits at the centre of non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), the dominant pathway for repairing DNA double-strand breaks in mammalian cells. Recruited to DNA ends by DNA-PKcs and activated by DNA-PKcs-mediated phosphorylation, its endonuclease activity opens the covalently sealed hairpin intermediates generated during V(D)J recombination — the process that assembles diverse antigen-receptor genes in developing T and B lymphocytes. Beyond hairpin opening it also trims and resects DNA ends at double-strand breaks and during immunoglobulin class-switch recombination, making it essential both for adaptive-immune diversity and for genome stability after damage.

Loss-of-function mutations in DCLRE1C cause radiosensitive severe combined immunodeficiency (RS-SCID), including the founder Athabascan SCID phenotype, and Omenn syndrome; hypomorphic alleles are linked to milder combined immunodeficiency, elevated lymphoma risk and clinical radiosensitivity. Because Artemis is required to repair a defined subset of radiation-induced breaks, and because tumour cells often rely on NHEJ to survive genotoxic therapy, it is actively pursued as a radiosensitiser and anti-cancer drug target; the structure reported alongside 6TT5 was explicitly generated to support structure-based strategies for its inhibition.

2020-12-17 Transcriptional enhancer factor TEF-1 Disorder / coiled-coil ambiguity TM 0.49 pLDDT 74 FRAUD 0.38

AlphaFold modelled 9A0Q_A at mean pLDDT 73.7, but the deposited structure scores TM-score 0.49 against that prediction — 44% of residues confidently wrong. A disorder / coiled-coil ambiguity.

Transcriptional enhancer factor TEF-1 is a 87-residue chain. This is the fold AlphaFold predicts, and it does so with high confidence.

In the viewer, residues are coloured by their Cα deviation from the AlphaFold model — red marks where the deposited coordinates moved furthest from the prediction; toggle the AlphaFold “ghost” to overlay what it predicted.

AlphaFold's mean pLDDT of 73.7 signals moderate confidence, yet the accuracy metrics disagree: TM-score 0.49, Cα-RMSD 12.89 Å, lDDT 0.61, secondary-structure agreement Q3 83%.

Confidence is only weakly informative — the pLDDT↔lDDT correlation is +0.60. Mechanistically, the sequence lacks a single well-defined fold, so AlphaFold's one static answer cannot match the deposited state. The sequence is within AlphaFold's training distribution.

AlphaFold modelled 6U4Y_A at mean pLDDT 89.4, but the deposited structure scores TM-score 0.48 against that prediction — 97% of residues confidently wrong. A right fold, wrong conformation/assembly.

Histone-lysine N-methyltransferase EZH2 is a 224-residue chain; the deposition resolves 6 chains. This is the fold AlphaFold predicts, and it does so with high confidence.

In the viewer, residues are coloured by their Cα deviation from the AlphaFold model — red marks where the deposited coordinates moved furthest from the prediction; toggle the AlphaFold “ghost” to overlay what it predicted.

AlphaFold's mean pLDDT of 89.4 signals high confidence, yet the accuracy metrics disagree: TM-score 0.48, Cα-RMSD 37.01 Å, lDDT 0.83, secondary-structure agreement Q3 79%.

Confidence is only weakly informative — the pLDDT↔lDDT correlation is +0.43. Mechanistically, the local fold is largely correct but the global arrangement is not — the hallmark of a conformational-state or inter-domain-geometry error rather than a misfold. The sequence is within AlphaFold's training distribution.

Ordinary folds AlphaFold still gets wrong

AlphaFold is genuinely good at compact, single-chain globular folds — which is exactly why these four are so telling. Each is a regular folded protein, not an amyloid, a membrane protein, or a disordered chain. AlphaFold gets the fold essentially right, then commits — often at very high confidence — to the wrong conformation, curvature, or inter-domain pose. The failure is subtle, and its rarity is itself the finding.

🧬 Structure & architecture

The PP2A A/scaffold subunit (PR65) is built entirely from 15 tandem HEAT repeats, each an antiparallel pair of ~39-residue α-helices (a short 'A' helix and a longer 'B' helix) joined by a turn. Successive repeats stack side-by-side into a superhelical, horseshoe-shaped α-solenoid ~90 Å long, with no β-structure or globular core — architecturally distinct from most folds in the AlphaFraud set.

Functionally it is a bipartite assembly platform: HEAT repeats 1–10 form the concave surface that recruits one of ~26 regulatory B-family subunits, while repeats 11–15 dock the catalytic C subunit, together forming the PP2A heterotrimer. Critically the solenoid is not a rigid ruler: inter-repeat hinge angles — concentrated around repeats 5–7 and the B/C-subunit interface — flex between 'open'/extended and 'clamped'/compact states depending on which subunits are bound. PR65 is a spring, not a fixed curve.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

This is a confidence paradox. Mean pLDDT 96.8 says AlphaFold is essentially certain of the local geometry of every HEAT-repeat helix pair — reasonable, because the repeat unit is a simple, well-constrained motif. Yet TM-score 0.293, Cα-RMSD 15.0 Å, lDDT 0.311 and a 0.99 confidently-wrong-residue fraction show the assembled molecule is grossly wrong in overall shape against the deposited PR65 subunit of 8UWB.

It is a curvature/hinge failure, not a fold failure: AlphaFold locks onto one static superhelical bend, but tiny per-repeat angular errors compound multiplicatively across 15 tandem repeats into tens of Ångströms of end-to-end displacement — exactly what a global metric like TM-score punishes while the more local lDDT (0.31, not near-zero) partially forgives. The near-zero pLDDT↔lDDT correlation (−0.13) confirms confidence carries no diagnostic signal. The source paper had to solve an experimental PP2A trimer to guide AlphaFold2-Multimer rather than trust single-sequence prediction of the assembly.

🩺 Biology & disease

PP2A is one of the cell's two dominant serine/threonine phosphatases, an obligate A–B–C heterotrimer that dephosphorylates substrates across the cell cycle, Akt/PI3K and MYC signalling, apoptosis and the DNA-damage response — a major tumour suppressor. PPP2R1A is the sole scaffold onto which combinatorial exchange of B subunits builds an estimated ~100 distinct holoenzymes with different specificities and localisations.

PPP2R1A is recurrently mutated in endometrial and ovarian carcinomas, with hotspots (P179R, R183W/P, S256F, W257G/L/C, R258H) clustering in HEAT repeats 5–7 that disrupt B56-family binding without abolishing C-subunit docking — uncoupling substrate targeting from catalysis. Germline variants cause a neurodevelopmental disorder. PP2A reactivation by small-molecule activators (SMAPs) is an active oncology strategy exploiting exactly the scaffold flexibility this structure captures.

🧬 Structure & architecture

STIM1 is a type-I single-pass ER membrane protein: an N-terminal luminal EF-hand/SAM domain senses ER Ca²⁺, followed by one transmembrane helix, and a cytosolic region of stacked coiled-coil segments — CC1, then the CC2–CC3 pair that folds into the CAD/SOAR module that ultimately traps and gates Orai1. CC1 (~238–343) is not a simple two-stranded coiled coil but a compact, antiparallel three-helix bundle held together by a hydrophobic interhelical seam.

In the resting cell this bundle folds back on itself so that CC1α3 clamps CAD/SOAR intramolecularly, holding STIM1 'tight' and autoinhibited. Store depletion collapses the luminal Ca²⁺ signal, propagates across the membrane and releases the clamp, letting CC1 and the whole C-terminus adopt an 'extended' conformation that frees CAD/SOAR to engage Orai1. CC1 is a genuinely bistable folded module — two legitimate, functionally distinct tertiary arrangements of the same helical content.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

This is emphatically not disorder or amyloid: SS-Q3 of 69.6% confirms AlphaFold gets the local chemistry right — CC1 is helical, and the model largely agrees on where the helices are. What collapses is tertiary packing: lDDT 0.341, TM-score 0.389 and Cα-RMSD 35.8 Å — the signature of correct secondary structure wrapped around the wrong global arrangement.

Consistent with AlphaFold's known bias toward continuous, extended coiled-coil geometry for heptad-rich sequences, it most likely predicted CC1 as a single elongated helix or open hairpin — the 'extended', CAD-releasing conformation — while 6YEL captures the compact, folded-back three-helix bundle of the autoinhibited state (or vice versa). A single-sequence predictor trained to output one static structure has no mechanism to represent a switch with two functionally required minima; it commits to one at pLDDT 78.9, leaving 84% of residues confidently wrong. The fold class is correct; the conformer is not.

🩺 Biology & disease

STIM1 is the ER-resident Ca²⁺ sensor that initiates store-operated Ca²⁺ entry (SOCE). Ca²⁺ loss from the EF-SAM domain triggers luminal unfolding and oligomerisation, redistribution to ER–plasma-membrane junctions, and release of the CC1 clamp so that CAD/SOAR can capture and gate Orai1 CRAC channels — driving Ca²⁺ influx essential for T-cell and mast-cell activation, muscle excitation–contraction coupling and platelet function.

The CC1α1–α2 contacts set the activation threshold. Gain-of-function mutations such as R304W disrupt these contacts, elongate the helix and destabilise the tight resting bundle, producing constitutive CAD exposure — underlying Stormorken syndrome and tubular aggregate myopathy. Loss-of-function STIM1 mutations abolish CRAC activity, causing CRAC-channelopathy immunodeficiency. CC1 is the structural fulcrum between healthy and diseased Ca²⁺ signalling.

🧬 Structure & architecture

Human Aha1 (338 aa) is built from two compact globular domains: an N-terminal domain (NTD, ~1–156, a Rossmann-like α/β fold) and a C-terminal domain (CTD, ~157–338, a curved β-sandwich), joined by a linker that is only partly ordered even when Aha1 is docked on its partner. Each domain individually folds robustly and is well characterised in isolation.

In the extended, Hsp90-bound state the NTD engages the Hsp90 middle domain and the CTD packs against the N-terminal ATPase domains, stabilising the closed, hydrolysis-competent state in an asymmetric 1:2 stoichiometry. But this domain-bridging arrangement is an induced state: free Aha1 in solution is intrinsically dynamic, its NTD and CTD tumbling largely independently and sampling a broad distribution of inter-domain orientations. Aha1 behaves less like one rigid two-domain protein and more like two folded modules loosely constrained by a flexible hinge.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

The numbers tell an intra-domain-correct, inter-domain-wrong story. lDDT is a moderate 0.748 and SS-Q3 is 74.3% — both domains fold essentially correctly, far better than genuinely misfolded targets. But TM-score collapses to 0.432 with a 23.4 Å Cα-RMSD, and 85% of residues are confidently wrong despite mean pLDDT 83.3.

AlphaFold has built two accurate local folds, then bolted them together at one specific, self-consistent NTD–CTD angle and buried the joint in a high-pLDDT interface — exactly the behaviour its confidence metric should flag but does not (pLDDT↔lDDT correlation only +0.33), because the network has no way to represent an ensemble. The NMR solution structure (7DME) instead reflects the flexible, loosely coupled reality: whichever discrete pose AlphaFold picked, the linker's real freedom put the deposited orientation far from it. A textbook flexible-linker failure — the pieces are right, the assembly instruction is wrong.

🩺 Biology & disease

Aha1 is the strongest known stimulator of Hsp90's intrinsically slow ATPase, accelerating the conformational cycle required to mature a broad swath of Hsp90 clients — kinases, steroid hormone receptors and disease-relevant misfolded proteins. It binds Hsp90 asymmetrically (one Aha1 per dimer suffices), with its NTD engaging the Hsp90 middle domain and its CTD stabilising the closed N-domain interface, and also shows independent holdase-like chaperone activity toward stress-denatured proteins.

The partnership has direct disease relevance: Aha1 drives maturation of ΔF508-CFTR, and reducing Aha1 improves ΔF508-CFTR trafficking — a strategy of interest in cystic fibrosis; Aha1 also promotes accumulation of pathological tau, implicating it in tauopathies. Given Hsp90's centrality to oncogenic client maturation, the Aha1–Hsp90 interface is an actively pursued target for allosteric modulation in cancer and proteostasis disease.

🧬 Structure & architecture

Full-length WWP2 (870 aa) has the canonical NEDD4-family layout: an N-terminal C2 domain, four WW domains (WW1–WW4) that read PPxY/LPxY motifs in substrates, and a C-terminal HECT domain that forms the E3~ubiquitin thioester. Each WW domain is one of the smallest autonomously folding units known — ~35–40 residues, a three-stranded antiparallel β-sheet stabilised by two invariant tryptophans packing its hydrophobic face.

In the resting enzyme WWP2 is autoinhibited: the 2,3-linker wraps onto the HECT domain, occluding its allosteric ubiquitin site — relieved by ubiquitin binding, multivalent WW engagement by adaptors such as Ndfip1, or linker phosphorylation. Separately, isoform-specific pairing of WW3 and WW4 recognises PY-motif partners (e.g. Smad7) with an inter-domain geometry that is not fixed: it shifts with ligand identity and phosphorylation state.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

The chemistry is trivial: a two-Trp, three-strand β-sheet is exactly the small, high-contact-order motif AlphaFold nails routinely. Yet mean pLDDT here is only 74.5 — the model is honestly hedging — and everything downstream is bad: TM-score 0.46, lDDT 0.503, Cα-RMSD 21.9 Å, SS-Q3 63%, 73% of residues confidently wrong, and a pLDDT↔lDDT correlation of just +0.15.

The 109-residue deposited chain pairs the native WW fold with a second, unrelated folded module (an NMR solubility-tag partner) via a short flexible tether — structurally the same problem as native WW3–WW4 tandems having no single relative orientation. Given one sequence and no knowledge of which pose (or which fusion) was actually captured, AlphaFold predicted a specific, wrong relative packing — a linker/inter-module geometry failure layered on top of individually correct small folds, not a misfolded core. Here the honest thing is that its confidence, uniquely low among these examples, half-admits the uncertainty.

🩺 Biology & disease

WWP2 is a HECT-family E3 ubiquitin ligase of the NEDD4-like clan, using its WW domains as substrate-recognition modules that dock PY-motif partners for K48- or K63-linked ubiquitination. Validated substrates include SMAD7 and SMAD2/3 (TGF-β pathway), PTEN, TP53 and the pluripotency factor OCT4, alongside roles touching chromatin regulators and autophagy machinery.

Because WWP2 arises as multiple splice isoforms with different WW-domain complements, the same locus produces enzymes with opposing substrate preferences — WWP2-C preferentially degrades the TGF-β inhibitor SMAD7 and promotes EMT/metastasis, while WWP2-N targets SMAD2/3. Autoinhibition via the 2,3-linker keeps basal activity low until relieved by ubiquitin binding or phosphorylation. WWP2 dysregulation and isoform-ratio shifts are implicated in cancers (SMAD/TGF-β and PTEN/p53 axes), osteoblast and cardiac remodelling, and stem-cell biology via OCT4 turnover.

The dramatic failures — aggregation, disorder & context

The headline catches: whole-fold catastrophes where AlphaFold's confident native prediction and the deposited coordinates are essentially unrelated — a novel membrane amyloid, a disordered monomer forced into a fibril, a folded tetramer that amyloids, and a multidomain zymogen captured in the wrong biological context.

🧬 Structure & architecture

TMEM106B is a type-II single-pass lysosomal membrane protein: a short, intrinsically disordered cytoplasmic N-terminus (~1–96), a single TM helix (~97–120), and a luminal C-terminal domain (CTD, ~118–274). The monomeric CTD's native fold, solved by X-ray crystallography (PDB 8B7D), is a canonical fibronectin type III (FN3) β-sandwich — a seven-stranded Ig-like fold crowned by a short α-helix and pinned by a disulfide.

In disease and in aged brain the same CTD polymerises homotypically: residues ~120–254 form the ordered fibril core, adopting an entirely different five-layered cross-β architecture of 17–19 short β-strands per rung, stacked in-register at ~4.8 Å rise. Three N-glycans and a C214–C253 disulfide are built into the ordered core — unusual for amyloid. This is a polymer fold, not a monomer fold; AlphaFold predicts only the latter.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

AlphaFold returns the native monomeric FN3 fold at mean pLDDT 94.4 — high confidence, because the sequence has strong coevolutionary support for a folded globular domain. But the deposited structure (7U14 chain A) is the amyloid cross-β core, and the two topologies are essentially unrelated: TM-score 0.157 (near-random), Cα-RMSD 27.1 Å, GDT_TS 0.56, and even secondary-structure identity collapses to Q3 52.6%.

The calibration failure is total: the pLDDT↔lDDT correlation is 0.03 (confidence carries no information about local accuracy), 72% of residues are over-confident by PAE, and 100% are confidently wrong. The root cause is structural: amyloid is a non-native, self-templated fold stabilised by intermolecular stacking across thousands of copies — a cooperative polymer state that cannot be inferred from a single chain. The sequence is also 100% novel to AlphaFold's training cutoff, so no template steers it off its globular-fold prior.

🩺 Biology & disease

TMEM106B is a broadly-expressed lysosomal membrane glycoprotein regulating lysosome size, pH, positioning and trafficking. It was the first GWAS risk/modifier locus for FTLD-TDP, acting most strongly in progranulin (GRN) mutation carriers, where the risk haplotype accelerates onset — largely via a linked coding variant, T185S, that changes glycosylation and turnover.

The 2022 discovery (reported near-simultaneously in Cell, Nature and Acta Neuropathologica) that the CTD itself forms amyloid fibrils — independent of and distinct from TDP-43, tau and α-synuclein — reframed TMEM106B as an amyloidogenic species in its own right. These fibrils accumulate across a broad range of neurodegenerative diseases and, strikingly, in cognitively-normal aged brain in an age-dependent manner.

🧬 Structure & architecture

Alpha-synuclein is a 140-residue intrinsically disordered protein with no stable tertiary structure as a soluble monomer. It has three regions: an amphipathic N-terminus (1–60) of imperfect KTKEGV repeats that folds into a helix on membrane contact; the hydrophobic NAC domain (~61–95), the aggregation-nucleating core; and an acidic, unstructured C-terminus (96–140) that chaperones against aggregation.

The deposited structures are full-length fibrils solved by cryo-EM: two protofilaments intertwined about a 2₁ screw axis, each a serpentine, Greek-key-like arrangement of β-strands packing a hydrophobic core over residues ~37–99. This cross-β fold is polymorphic — Parkinson's/DLB filaments differ from the multiple-system-atrophy polymorphs — and is templated by intermolecular stacking, not by the monomer's own energy landscape.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

On the worst case (9A1Q chain A): TM-score 0.138, Cα-RMSD 36.3 Å, lDDT 0.18, GDT_TS 1.6, SS-Q3 35% — essentially no fold correspondence. Expected, since AlphaFold has no cross-β amyloid mode in its training distribution, and nothing about the sequence alone specifies which disease-associated protofilament fold it will adopt.

More diagnostically, mean pLDDT 75.2 with a pLDDT↔lDDT correlation of −0.29 shows AlphaFold's confidence is actively anti-correlated with accuracy — where the model is more confident it is measurably wrong more often, likely because it partially recognises local propensities (helical N-terminus, extended NAC) without any signal for polymorph-specific packing. This is the archetypal disordered-monomer-forced-into-amyloid failure: 206 of 208 depositions confidently wrong, the highest deposition count in the set.

🩺 Biology & disease

Alpha-synuclein is a presynaptic protein that modulates SNARE-complex assembly, vesicle clustering and neurotransmitter release, binding curved acidic membranes via its N-terminal amphipathic helix. Its aggregation into fibrils in Lewy bodies defines the synucleinopathies: Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, and multiple system atrophy (where fibrils accumulate in oligodendrocytes).

Familial PD mutations (A30P, E46K, H50Q, G51D, A53T) cluster in the N-terminal/NAC region and alter membrane binding and polymorph selection; SNCA locus multiplication causes disease by dosage. Pathology spreads by prion-like templated seeding, and distinct fibril 'strains' correlate with distinct clinical syndromes — a proposed basis for seed-amplification biomarkers.

Transthyretin TTR

AlphaFold calls the native TTR fold at pLDDT 98 — statistically indistinguishable from certainty — while the deposited cardiac amyloid fibril scores TM 0.21 against that prediction, a 22.8 Å Cα-RMSD collapse that makes this one of the starkest confidently-wrong cases in the dataset.

🧬 Structure & architecture

The TTR monomer is a 127-residue subunit folded as an eight-stranded β-sandwich — two four-stranded antiparallel sheets in a Greek-key, immunoglobulin-like topology with a short α-helix between strands E and F. Monomers dimerise edge-to-edge and two dimers pack back-to-back into the physiological homotetramer, forming two funnel-shaped thyroxine-binding sites. This is exactly what AlphaFold predicts, at near-maximal confidence.

The amyloid state is a different molecule. Tetramer dissociation and partial monomer unfolding precede assembly into cross-β fibrils: cryo-EM resolves a single protofilament built from an N-terminal segment (~Pro11–Lys35) and a C-terminal segment (~Gly57–Thr123) packed into a compact serpentine β-arch, connected by a disordered linker, stacking at ~4.8 Å rise. Essentially none of the native sandwich topology survives.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

Every metric tells the same story. AlphaFold's mean pLDDT 98.0 reflects extreme confidence in the native β-sandwich — unsurprising, since TTR has 0% sequence novelty and sits squarely in the training set. But the deposited structure (9BZS chain A) is the amyloid fibril: TM-score 0.214, Cα-RMSD 22.8 Å, lDDT 0.49, GDT_TS 0.27, SS-Q3 56.5%. The confidently-wrong-residue fraction is 1.0, and 75% of errors fall in PAE-overconfident territory; FRAUD 0.95.

The mechanistic point is the cleanest illustration of the whole thesis: pLDDT measures AlphaFold's confidence in the fold it knows — the evolutionarily-conserved native state — not whether a given deposited coordinate set represents that state. Amyloid is a non-native, kinetically-accessed aggregation product; nothing in the sequence-to-native-structure mapping AlphaFold learned encodes it. This is a wrong-STATE failure, not an unknown-sequence one.

🩺 Biology & disease

TTR is a homotetrameric transport protein made mainly by the liver (plasma) and choroid plexus (CSF). It carries thyroxine (T4) in the tetramer channel and retinol indirectly, via retinol-binding protein 4. Amyloidogenesis is rate-limited by tetramer dissociation to monomer, which partially unfolds and reassembles into fibrils that deposit in nerve and cardiac tissue.

Two diseases result: wild-type ATTR (age-related cardiac amyloidosis) and hereditary ATTRv from >130 destabilising mutations (classically V30M polyneuropathy). Uniquely among amyloid diseases, it is genuinely druggable — tetramer kinetic stabilisers (tafamidis, diflunisal, acoramidis) lock the tetramer at the T4 sites, and gene-silencing agents (patisiran, vutrisiran) suppress hepatic production. The 2024 cryo-EM work behind 9BZS found V30M fibrils from heart and nerve of the same patient are near-identical.

Coagulation factor X F10

AlphaFold nails the modular zymogen it was trained to see, but the worst-scoring deposition isn't Factor X folded at all — it's a 39-residue stretch of the EGF1 domain, unfolded and threaded through the active site of a partner hydroxylase: a failure of context, not of fold prediction.

🧬 Structure & architecture

Full-length Factor X is a vitamin-K-dependent zymogen built from an N-terminal Gla domain (11 γ-carboxyglutamates coordinating Ca²⁺ for membrane docking), two tandem EGF-like domains, and a C-terminal chymotrypsin-fold serine protease domain (catalytic triad His236–Asp282–Ser379). Light and heavy chains are disulfide-linked; a 52-residue activation peptide is excised on activation to factor Xa. AlphaFold predicts this compact multidomain architecture with high confidence.

The deposited PDB corpus fragments that picture: isolated Gla domains, isolated protease domains, activated Xa, Xa in prothrombinase/tenase assemblies — and, in the worst case here (6Q9F chain B), a synthetic 39-mer peptide spanning the EGF1 β-hydroxylation site, captured extended through the active-site channel of aspartyl/asparaginyl β-hydroxylase (AspH), not folded as an EGF module at all.

❌ Why AlphaFold gets it wrong

This is a wrong-context failure, not re-folding-into-amyloid, and the numbers say so. FRAUD 0.37 and Cα-RMSD 6.6 Å are moderate — nowhere near the ~25 Å amyloid catastrophes — and SS-Q3 70% shows partial secondary-structure agreement survives. Yet TM-score collapses to 0.127: a 39-residue linear fragment threaded through AspH's channel has no compact fold to superpose against AlphaFold's EGF1-in-context prediction.

The pLDDT↔lDDT correlation of −0.59 is the tell: AlphaFold assigns high local confidence (mean pLDDT 93.5) to a folded domain context that isn't present in the crystal, so confidence and correctness move in opposite directions. AlphaFold models the isolated, intact, canonical protein; experiments capture it activated, cleaved, fragmented or bound — states that, given one sequence, it cannot know. It has no way to anticipate a residue will later be excised as substrate for another enzyme.

🩺 Biology & disease

Factor X is a vitamin-K-dependent plasma zymogen made in the liver. It is activated by two convergent tenase complexes — the extrinsic tissue-factor/FVIIa and the intrinsic FIXa/FVIIIa (deficient in haemophilia B and A). Activated factor Xa, with cofactor Va, Ca²⁺ and phospholipid, forms prothrombinase, the complex that converts prothrombin to thrombin — the central amplification node of coagulation.

That makes Xa one of the most validated anticoagulant targets: the direct oral inhibitors rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban bind the protease S1/S4 pockets and are first-line for atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism. Separately, AspH hydroxylates a conserved Asp/Asn in Factor X's EGF1 domain using Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate chemistry — an oncofetal antigen of interest in cancer immunotherapy, which motivated this exact structure series.
