- Протонирование, гликозилирование, кофакторы — обычно отсутствуют, если не оговорено.
- Конформационная энтропия и долгая динамика — не моделируются одним forward pass.
- Экспрессия, агрегация, иммуногенность — не равны likelihood генератора.
- Истинная binding free energy — не равна internal score.
