Researchers have introduced ProtStructQA, a new benchmark designed to evaluate protein-language models on their ability to perform structural reasoning. This benchmark features over 380,000 executable questions derived from a domain-specific language program, which are answered by executing these programs on AlphaFold-predicted protein structures. Experiments with Qwen3 and Gemma models revealed a capability-dependent denotation threshold, indicating that tool-mediated reasoning is crucial for models below a certain size, while chain-of-thought prompting becomes more beneficial for larger models.
