00:00Proteins are what everything in life depends on, and it's really important to understand
00:07how the structure of a protein, the 3D structure of a protein, looks like in the body to understand
00:12what it does.
00:14And so what AlphaFold does, our program, is it can predict that 3D structure just from
00:18the amino acid sequence, basically the genetic sequence of that protein.
00:22I think maybe one way to look at it is, you know, this is something done all the time
00:28by research biologists, and it takes them a year or more to get a single answer.
00:33And we have a program that gives an answer that's, you know, reasonably close in quality
00:37and does it in five or ten minutes.
