Running Program

Also refer to Running Jobs on Sapelo2

• Version 3.0.0

This version is installed as a singularity container:

/apps/singularity-images/alphafold-3.0.0.sif

You can view the documentation for this version of AlphaFold with the following command, on an interactive (i.e., NOT a login/submit) node:

singularity exec /apps/singularity-images/alphafold-3.0.0.sif python /app/alphafold/run_alphafold.py --helpfull

Note that AlphaFold 3 is GPU dependent while also being CPU and memory intensive, meaning that it will only run on the A100 and H100 nodes and needs numerous CPUs to run in a timely/efficient manner (see the example job submission script below). AlphaFold 3 also depends on a set of database files, the current versions of which can be found at /db/AlphaFold3/20241114, and a file containing the model parameters; currently this is only available directly from Google, and can be obtained by completing the form found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfWZAgo1aYk0O4MuAXZj8xRQ8DafeFJnldNOnh_13qAx2ceZw/viewform. Once these are obtained and placed somewhere in your storage space on Sapelo2 (/home or /work is recommended), they must be included with the '-B' or "--bind" option at runtime, as must the location of the input file and output directory (see example below).

Sample job submission script to run the singularity container for v3.0.0 on a GPU:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --job-name=alphafold3			#Name your job something original
#SBATCH --partition=gpu_p			#Use the GPU partition
#SBATCH --ntasks=1		
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=32			#If you use the default options, AlphaFold3 will run four simutaneous Jackhmmer processes with 8 CPUs each
#SBATCH --gres=gpu:1				#If you don’t care whether your job uses an A100 node or an H100 node (and there isn’t much difference in run time)…
#SBATCH --constraint=Milan|SapphireRapids	#…this is the easiest way to specify either one without accidentally using a P100 or L4, which lack sufficient device memory
#SBATCH --mem=60gb
#SBATCH --time=120:00:00
#SBATCH --output=%x.%j.out     
#SBATCH --error=%x.%j.err

flags:

/app/alphafold/run_alphafold.py:
  --buckets: Strictly increasing order of token sizes for which to cache compilations. For any input with more tokens than the largest bucket size, a new bucket is created for exactly that number of tokens.
    (default: '256,512,768,1024,1280,1536,2048,2560,3072,3584,4096,4608,5120')

    (default: '301')
    (an integer)
  --test_randomize_ordering_seed: If positive, use this as a seed to randomize the execution order for test cases. If "random", pick a random seed to use. If 0 or not set, do not randomize test case execution order. This flag also overrides the
    TEST_RANDOMIZE_ORDERING_SEED environment variable.

absl.flags:
  --flagfile: Insert flag definitions from the given file into the command line.
    (default: '')
  --undefok: comma-separated list of flag names that it is okay to specify on the command line even if the program does not define a flag with that name.  IMPORTANT: flags in this list that have arguments MUST use the --flag=value format.
