AlphaFold is an extraordinary advance in the speed of the development of 
knowledge. Compare the rapidity of the understanding of the structure of 
COV-2 with the decades of labor required in the 1950s and 1960s for 
determination of the structure of myosin, the protein that is the largest 
constituent of skeletal muscle, as described in this article on the 
investigation of the molecular motor of muscle 
<https://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/advan.00077.2021>. 

(No, I'm not a biochemist; my parents were - they spent their working lives 
on the regulation of muscle contraction).
