STRC jobs

AlphaFold 3 job configs and outputs for the STRC / DFNB16 research program. Heavy data — kept here, not inside the Brain vault, because:

  1. CouchDB / Obsidian LiveSync mirrors ~/Knowledge/Brain/ — the protein .zip archives (15–30 MB each, dozens of them) would balloon CouchDB and make sync impractical.
  2. Missions/STRC is NOT in the LiveSync path, so files here are safe from accidental cross-replication to iPhone / iCloud / Brain backups.
  3. Job outputs are reproducible from the input .json files via AlphaFold 3 — this is cache, not source-of-truth.

  af3-job-*.json       # input job specs (small, the source-of-truth)
  fold_*.zip           # AlphaFold output bundles (large, regeneratable)

How to consume in Brain

If a fold result becomes load-bearing for a hypothesis, extract the relevant figure / structure file and link it from a Brain note via path:

Result: ![[/Missions/STRC/jobs/alphafold-2026-04-22/fold_xxx/structure.png]]

Don’t copy entire .zip into the vault. Cite the path; let the heavy data live here.
