Researchers have introduced BILBY, a new framework for evaluating protein motif scaffolding models. BILBY-PRO offers a benchmark of 220 functional motifs derived from PROSITE, while BILBY-MD provides a molecular dynamics framework to assess dynamic fidelity. Evaluations of six models showed that while RFDiffusion and Proteina solve more targets, ESM3 generates more unique successful scaffolds. Crucially, only 8 out of 55 statically solved designs passed all molecular dynamics validation checks, indicating that static success does not guarantee dynamic stability. AI
IMPACT Highlights the need for more rigorous, dynamics-aware evaluation in generative protein design, potentially guiding future model development.
