A Generalized Protein Design ML Model Enables Generation of Functional De Novo Proteins
1. This paper introduces MP4, a transformer-based AI model designed to generate functional de novo proteins from minimal text prompts. Unlike traditional models that focus on predefined backbones, MP4 adopts a text-to-protein approach, allowing for more flexible and generalizable protein design.
2. MP4 is trained on a diverse dataset of 138,000 tokens and 3.2 billion unique data points, enabling it to learn complex relationships between sequence, structure, and function. The model simultaneously optimizes multiple properties, including structural foldability, functional specificity, and biological feasibility.
3. The generated sequences demonstrate high novelty, with many sequences showing at least 50% difference from known natural proteins. The model's Seqdif scores range from 50 to 80, indicating significant exploration of the sequence space.
4. MP4 demonstrates impressive predictive performance, with generated sequences showing high structural stability. The average predicted local distance difference test (pLDDT) score is 82.6, highlighting the model’s ability to produce stable protein structures.
5. Experimental validation was conducted on 94 selected proteins, of which 84% successfully expressed in a prokaryotic cell-free system. Thermostability assessments revealed average melting temperatures exceeding 62°C, with the most stable proteins approaching 90°C.
6. MP4 offers a versatile tool for rational protein design, generating proteins that exhibit desired functional properties, efficient expression, and robust stability. Future work will expand the vocabulary of functional prompts and improve integration of structural predictions to enhance design accuracy.

No one becomes a clinician to do paperwork, but it's becoming a bigger and bigger administrative burden, taking time and attention away from actually treating and supporting patients.
That’s why we’re introducing Microsoft Dragon Copilot, the industry’s first AI assistant for clinical workflow.
We're thrilled to present ESM3 in @ScienceMagazine. ESM3 is a generative language model that reasons over the three fundamental properties of proteins: sequence, structure, and function. Today we're making ESM3 available free to researchers worldwide via the public beta of an API for biological intelligence.
Trained with over a trillion teraflops of compute, this is the first time a model of this scale has been trained for biology, pushing the frontier of AI for biological discovery and engineering.
ESM3 learns to represent the immense complexity of protein biology, learning from billions of natural proteins. From this training it developed the capability to design proteins, responding to complex prompts combining atomic level details and high level instructions to generate new proteins.
ESM3 can explore protein space far beyond natural evolution. We prompted ESM3 to generate a fluorescent protein at a far distance from any known fluorescent proteins, searching an unknown region of protein space, to discover a new fluorescent protein.
We estimate this is equivalent to simulating five hundred million years of evolution.

Do language models have an internal world model? A sense of time? At multiple spatiotemporal scales?
In a new paper with @tegmark we provide evidence that they do by finding a literal map of the world inside the activations of Llama-2!

Molecular dynamics has a powerful property of letting you quickly form an intuition of how molecules behave on their own scales. You immediately realize how thermal fluctuations dominate and how molecular states are a constant tug and pull. The insights of simulation.
