Researchers have developed GOLD, a novel Geometric Optimized Latent Diffusion model for RNA inverse folding. This method uniquely integrates discrete RNA sequences with continuous side-chain orientations into a unified latent manifold, enabling a synergistic co-diffusion process. GOLD also incorporates a training-free, gradient-guided sampling mechanism that uses physical constraints to actively guide the generated sequence towards a stable 3D structure. Experiments show GOLD outperforms existing methods in sequence recovery, secondary structure validity, and 3D foldability. AI
