The AlphaFold database provides 200M protein structures predicted by AlphaFold2 in 2022 from sequences in UniProt. However, of the 20,504 full-length human structures in the AlphaFold database, 575 entries conflict with UniProt (version 2024_05); and there is a similar discrepancy for other species. This highlights how bioinformatics resources as exemplified by the AlphaFold database can rapidly age.
