Engineered plasmids from thousands of labs share almost no consolidated design language — until now. PlasmidGPT is a generative language model pretrained on 153,208 engineered plasmid sequences from Addgene, learning embeddings rich enough to visualize research topics across labs and map plasmid diversity across vector types.

Those embeddings do real work: state-of-the-art lab-of-origin prediction for engineered plasmids, plus generalization to natural plasmids for host taxonomy prediction at both phylum and genus level. On the generative side, PlasmidGPT can be steered by a seed sequence or explicit design constraints to produce new functional plasmid sequences that recapitulate the part co-occurrence and synteny patterns seen in real plasmids — not just plausible-looking DNA, but structurally coherent designs.

And of course they had to suppress p53 since elephants have a lot more of this tumor suppressor than other species.
