  • Version 2.2.4

This version is installed as a singularity container pulled from https://hub.docker.com/r/catgumag/alphafold:

/apps/singularity-images/alphafold_2.2.4.sif

You can view the documentation for this version of AlphaFold with the following command, on an interactive node:

singularity exec /apps/singularity-images/alphafold_2.2.4.sif python /app/alphafold/run_alphafold.py --helpfull

This version works on nodes where the CPU processor is Intel, such as the P100 GPU nodes (note that this container does not work on the A100 node, which has an AMD processor).

The database files are installed in /apps/db/AlphaFold/2.2.4. To use these in the singularity container, please add the option -B /apps/db/AlphaFold to the singularity exec command, as shown in the sample job submission scripts below. The --nv option needs to be added to enable AlphaFold to run on the GPU. This singularity container also requires the option --use_gpu_relax to be added.


  • Version 2.3.1 (on Intel nodes only)

This version is installed as a singularity container pulled from https://hub.docker.com/r/catgumag/alphafold:

/apps/singularity-images/alphafold_2.3.1_cuda112.sif

You can view the documentation for this version of AlphaFold with the following command, on an interactive node:

singularity exec /apps/singularity-images/alphafold_2.3.1_cuda112.sif python /app/alphafold/run_alphafold.py --helpfull

This version works on nodes where the CPU processor is Intel, such as the P100 GPU nodes (note that this container does not work on the A100 node, which has an AMD processor).

The database files are installed in /apps/db/AlphaFold/2.3.1. To use these in the singularity container, please add the option -B /apps/db/AlphaFold to the singularity exec command, as shown in the sample job submission scripts below. The --nv option needs to be added to enable AlphaFold to run on the GPU. Please also add the option -B /apps/eb/CUDAcore/11.2.1 , so the singularity container can link to the CUDA libraries. This singularity container also requires the option --use_gpu_relax to be added.


  • Version 2.3.1

Installed with EasyBuild in /apps/eb/AlphaFold/2.3.1-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0/

To use this version of AlphaFold, please first load the module with

ml AlphaFold/2.3.1-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0

Once you load the module, an environmental variable called EBROOTALPHAFOLD is exported. It stores the AlphaFold installation path on the cluster, i.e., /apps/eb/AlphaFold/2.3.1-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0. The python script run_alphafold.py is installed in EBROOTALPHAFOLD/bin and a symbolic link called alphafold points to it and can be used to run the program. The 2.2TB of database files are in /apps/db/AlphaFold/2.3.1. You can export the environment variable ALPHAFOLD_DATA_DIR to set the location of the database files. For bash, use

export ALPHAFOLD_DATA_DIR=/apps/db/AlphaFold/2.3.1

When you load the AlphaFold/2.3.1-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0 module, this environment variable will be automatically set.

Note: If you run this program on the gpu_p partition, please request a P100 or an A100 GPU device. This version requires a GPU device and it should work on the P100, V100, and A100 devices.


  • Version 2.3.4

Installed with EasyBuild in /apps/eb/AlphaFold/2.3.4-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0-ColabFold/

To use this version of AlphaFold, please first load the module with

ml AlphaFold/2.3.4-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0-ColabFold

Once you load the module, an environmental variable called EBROOTALPHAFOLD is exported. It stores the AlphaFold installation path on the cluster, i.e., /apps/eb/AlphaFold/2.3.4-foss-2022a-CUDA-11.7.0-ColabFold.

Notes about the singularity container for version 2.3.1:

  • Use the -B /apps/db/AlphaFold option to allow singularity to access the location where the database files are installed.
  • Use the -B /apps/eb/CUDAcore/11.2.1 option to allow singularity to access the CUDA libraries.
  • Use the --nv option to allow singularity to run on a GPU. Note that the job will also need to request a GPU device using the #SBATCH --gres parameter.
  • The only parameter for the run_alphafold.py script that you need to change in these sample job submission scripts is the path to your fasta file: --fasta_paths=
  • You can also change these: --max_template_date and --output_dir
  • The lines that have $ALPHAFOLD_DATA_DIR can be used exactly as they are.
  • The job will run initially on CPU only, at a later stage it runs on a single GPU (so it suffices to request one GPU device for the job.
  • This version works on nodes where the CPU processor is Intel, such as the P100 GPU nodes (note that this container does not work on the A100 node, which has an AMD processor).

    (full_dbs)
    (default: 'full_dbs')
  --fasta_paths: Paths to FASTA files, each containing a prediction target that will be folded one after another. If a FASTA file contains multiple sequences,
    then it will be folded as a multimer. Paths should be separated by commas. All FASTA paths must have a unique basename as the basename is used to name the
    output directories for each prediction.
    (a comma separated list)

    only the most confident model is relaxed. If `none`, relaxation is not run. Turning off relaxation might result in predictions with distracting
    stereochemical violations but might help in case you are having issues with the relaxation stage.
    (default: 'best')

  --pdb_seqres_database_path: Path to the PDB seqres database for use by hmmsearch.
  --random_seed: The random seed for the data pipeline. By default, this is randomly generated. Note that even if this is set, Alphafold may still not be
    deterministic, because processes like GPU inference are nondeterministic.
    (an integer)

    (default: '/apps/db/AlphaFold/2.3.4/uniref90/uniref90.fasta')
  --[no]use_gpu_relax: Whether to relax on GPU. Relax on GPU can be much faster than CPU, so it is recommended to enable if possible. GPUs must be available if
    this setting is enabled.
    (default: 'true')
  --[no]use_precomputed_msas: Whether to read MSAs that have been written to disk instead of running the MSA tools. The MSA files are looked up in the output
    directory, so it must stay the same between multiple runs that are to reuse the MSAs. WARNING: This will not check if the sequence, database or
    configuration have changed.

  --[no]use_gpu_relax: Whether to relax on GPU. Relax on GPU can be much faster than CPU, so it is recommended to enable if possible. GPUs must be available if
    this setting is enabled.
    (default: 'true')
  --[no]use_precomputed_msas: Whether to read MSAs that have been written to disk instead of running the MSA tools. The MSA files are looked up in the output
    directory, so it must stay the same between multiple runs that are to reuse the MSAs. WARNING: This will not check if the sequence, database or
    configuration have changed.
    (default: 'false')

absl.app:
  -?,--[no]help: show this help

  --[no]pdb_post_mortem: Set to true to handle uncaught exceptions with PDB post mortem.
    (default: 'false')
  --profile_file: Dump profile information to a file (for python -m pstats). Implies --run_with_profiling.
  --[no]run_with_pdb: Set to true for PDB debug mode
    (default: 'false')
  --[no]run_with_profiling: Set to true for profiling the script. Execution will be slower, and the output format might change over time.
    (default: 'false')
  --[no]use_cprofile_for_profiling: Use cProfile instead of the profile module for profiling. This has no effect unless --run_with_profiling is set.
    (default: 'true')

absl.logging:
  --[no]alsologtostderr: also log to stderr?
    (default: 'false')
  --log_dir: directory to write logfiles into
    (default: '')
  --logger_levels: Specify log level of loggers. The format is a CSV list of `name:level`. Where `name` is the logger name used with `logging.getLogger()`, and
    `level` is a level name  (INFO, DEBUG, etc). e.g. `myapp.foo:INFO,other.logger:DEBUG`
    (default: '')
  --[no]logtostderr: Should only log to stderr?
    (default: 'false')
  --[no]showprefixforinfo: If False, do not prepend prefix to info messages when it's logged to stderr, --verbosity is set to INFO level, and python logging is
    used.
    (default: 'true')
  --stderrthreshold: log messages at this level, or more severe, to stderr in addition to the logfile.  Possible values are 'debug', 'info', 'warning', 'error',
    and 'fatal'.  Obsoletes --alsologtostderr. Using --alsologtostderr cancels the effect of this flag. Please also note that this flag is subject to
    --verbosity and requires logfile not be stderr.
    (default: 'fatal')
  -v,--verbosity: Logging verbosity level. Messages logged at this level or lower will be included. Set to 1 for debug logging. If the flag was not set or
    supplied, the value will be changed from the default of -1 (warning) to 0 (info) after flags are parsed.
    (default: '-1')
    (an integer)

absl.testing.absltest:
  --test_random_seed: Random seed for testing. Some test frameworks may change the default value of this flag between runs, so it is not appropriate for seeding
    probabilistic tests.
    (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.
    (default: '')
  --test_srcdir: Root of directory tree where source files live

    (default: 'false')

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.
