AlphaFast: High-throughput AlphaFold 3 via GPU-accelerated MSA construction.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
AlphaFold 3 (AF3) enables accurate biomolecular modeling but is limited by slow, CPU-bound multiple sequence alignment (MSA) generation. We introduce AlphaFast, a drop-in framework that integrates GPU-accelerated MMseqs2 sequence search to remove this bottleneck. AlphaFast achieves a 68.5× speedup in MSA construction and a 22.8× reduction in end-to-end runtime on a single GPU, and delivers predictions in 8 seconds per input on four GPUs while maintaining indistinguishable structural accuracy. A serverless deployment enables structure prediction for as little as $0.035 per input. Code is available at https://github.com/RomeroLab/alphafast.
