ESM:演化尺度建模

在處理 `esm` Python SDK、ESM3 或 ESMC 模型識別碼、Forge/Biohub 推論用戶端或 ESMFold2 折疊工作流程時使用。

ESM:演化尺度建模 是什麼?

ESM 技能提供一套蛋白質語言模型,用於理解、生成和設計蛋白質。它支援 EvolutionaryScale 和 Biohub 平台的最新工作流程,包括用於生成式設計的 ESM3、用於表徵學習和嵌入的 ESMC、託管的 Forge/Biohub 推論以及 ESMFold2 全原子結構預測。此技能涵蓋 ESM3 的蛋白質序列生成、基於結構的逆折疊、用於下游機器學習任務的蛋白質嵌入、功能條件式生成,以及用於迭代設計優化的鏈式思維(chain-of-thought)生成。開發人員可以使用 Python SDK 以進行本地推論(例如,從 Hugging Face 載入開放權重)或雲端 API 呼叫,並包含批次處理和生產部署的最佳實踐。此技能適用於需要蛋白質工程、藥物發現和科學研究自動化能力的 AI 代理。

ESM:演化尺度建模 是做什麼的?

概述

ESM 提供蛋白質語言模型,用於理解、生成和設計蛋白質。使用此技能處理當前的 EvolutionaryScale/Biohub 工作流程:使用 ESM3 進行生成式設計、使用 ESMC 進行表徵學習和嵌入、透過託管的 Forge/Biohub 進行推論,以及使用 ESMFold2 進行全原子結構預測。

核心功能

1. 使用 ESM3 生成蛋白質序列

使用多模態生成式建模生成具有所需特性的新型蛋白質序列。

使用時機:

  • 設計具有特定功能特性的蛋白質
  • 完成部分蛋白質序列
  • 生成現有蛋白質的變體
  • 創建具有所需結構特徵的蛋白質

基本用法:

from esm.models.esm3 import ESM3
from esm.sdk.api import ESM3InferenceClient, ESMProtein, GenerationConfig

# 在 Hugging Face 上接受授權條款後載入本地開放權重。
model: ESM3InferenceClient = ESM3.from_pretrained("esm3-open").to("cuda")

# 建立蛋白質提示
protein = ESMProtein(sequence="MPRT___KEND")  # '_' 代表遮蔽位置

# 生成補全
protein = model.generate(protein, GenerationConfig(track="sequence", num_steps=8))
print(protein.sequence)

遠端/雲端使用(透過 Forge API):

import os
import esm
from esm.sdk.api import ESMProtein, GenerationConfig

# 與本地 ESM3 相同的介面;令牌來自 ESM_API_KEY(請參閱驗證章節)
model = esm.sdk.client("esm3-medium-2024-08", token=os.environ["ESM_API_KEY"])

# 生成
protein = model.generate(protein, GenerationConfig(track="sequence", num_steps=8))

有關詳細的 ESM3 模型規格、進階生成配置和多模態提示範例,請參閱 references/esm3-api.md。

2. 結構預測與逆折疊

使用 ESM3 的結構軌道進行基於序列的結構預測,或逆折疊(根據結構設計序列)。

結構預測:

from esm.sdk.api import ESM3InferenceClient, ESMProtein, GenerationConfig

# 從序列預測結構
protein = ESMProtein(sequence="MPRTKEINDAGLIVHSP...")
protein_with_structure = model.generate(
    protein,
    GenerationConfig(track="structure", num_steps=protein.sequence.count("_"))
)

# 存取預測的結構
coordinates = protein_with_structure.coordinates  # 3D 座標
pdb_string = protein_with_structure.to_pdb()

逆折疊(根據結構設計序列):

# 為目標結構設計序列
protein_with_structure = ESMProtein.from_pdb("target_structure.pdb")
protein_with_structure.sequence = None  # 移除序列

# 生成能折疊成此結構的序列
designed_protein = model.generate(
    protein_with_structure,
    GenerationConfig(track="sequence", num_steps=50, temperature=0.7)
)

3. 使用 ESM C 生成蛋白質嵌入

為下游任務(如功能預測、分類或相似度分析)生成高品質的嵌入。

使用時機:

  • 提取用於機器學習的蛋白質表徵
  • 計算序列相似度
  • 用於蛋白質分類的特徵提取
  • 蛋白質相關任務的遷移學習

基本用法:

from esm.models.esmc import ESMC
from esm.sdk.api import ESMProtein, LogitsConfig

# 載入 ESM C 模型
model = ESMC.from_pretrained("esmc_300m").to("cuda")

# 取得嵌入
protein = ESMProtein(sequence="MPRTKEINDAGLIVHSP...")
protein_tensor = model.encode(protein)
logits_output = model.logits(
    protein_tensor,
    LogitsConfig(sequence=True, return_embeddings=True),
)
embeddings = logits_output.embeddings

批次處理:

# 編碼多個蛋白質
proteins = [
    ESMProtein(sequence="MPRTKEIND..."),
    ESMProtein(sequence="AGLIVHSPQ..."),
    ESMProtein(sequence="KTEFLNDGR...")
]

embeddings_list = [
    model.logits(
        model.encode(p),
        LogitsConfig(sequence=True, return_embeddings=True),
    ).embeddings
    for p in proteins
]

有關 ESM C 模型細節、效率比較和進階嵌入策略,請參閱 references/esm-c-api.md。

4. 功能條件式生成與註釋

使用 ESM3 的功能軌道來生成具有特定功能註釋的蛋白質,或從序列預測功能。

功能條件式生成:

from esm.sdk.api import ESMProtein, FunctionAnnotation, GenerationConfig

# 建立具有所需功能的蛋白質
protein = ESMProtein(
    sequence="_" * 200,  # 生成 200 個殘基的蛋白質
    function_annotations=[
        FunctionAnnotation(label="fluorescent_protein", start=50, end=150)
    ]
)

# 生成具有指定功能的序列
functional_protein = model.generate(
    protein,
    GenerationConfig(track="sequence", num_steps=200)
)

5. 鏈式思維生成

使用 ESM3 的鏈式思維生成方法,迭代地優化蛋白質設計。

from esm.sdk.api import GenerationConfig

# 多步驟優化
protein = ESMProtein(sequence="MPRT" + "_" * 100 + "KEND")

# 步驟 1:生成初始結構
config = GenerationConfig(track="structure", num_steps=50)
protein = model.generate(protein, config)

# 步驟 2:根據結構優化序列
config = GenerationConfig(track="sequence", num_steps=50, temperature=0.5)
protein = model.generate(protein, config)

# 步驟 3:預測功能
config = GenerationConfig(track="function", num_steps=20)
protein = model.generate(protein, config)

6. 使用 Forge API 進行批次處理

使用 Forge 的非同步方法高效處理多個蛋白質。

import os
import asyncio
import esm
from esm.sdk.api import ESMProtein, GenerationConfig

client = esm.sdk.client("esm3-medium-2024-08", token=os.environ["ESM_API_KEY"])

# 非同步批次處理
async def batch_generate(proteins_list):
    tasks = [
        client.async_generate(protein, GenerationConfig(track="sequence"))
        for protein in proteins_list
    ]
    return await asyncio.gather(*tasks)

# 執行
proteins = [ESMProtein(sequence=f"MPRT{'_' * 50}KEND") for _ in range(10)]
results = asyncio.run(batch_generate(proteins))

有關詳細的 Forge API 文件、驗證、速率限制和批次處理模式,請參閱 references/forge-api.md。

模型選擇指南

ESM3 模型(生成式):

  • esm3-open (1.4B) - 開放權重,接受 Hugging Face 授權條款後本地使用
  • esm3-medium-2024-08 (7B) - 品質與速度的最佳平衡(僅限 Forge)
  • esm3-large-2024-03 (98B) - 最高品質,速度較慢(僅限 Forge)

ESM C 模型(嵌入):

  • esmc_300m / esmc-300m-2024-12 (30 層) - 輕量級,快速推論(開放權重,本地)
  • esmc_600m / esmc-600m-2024-12 (36 層) - 平衡性能(開放權重,本地)
  • esmc-6b-2024-12 (80 層) - 最高品質(Forge API;本地 6B 權重需要 Forge 或 SageMaker)

本地 ESMC.from_pretrained() 範例使用底線別名(esmc_300m、esmc_600m)。託管 API 用戶端使用帶日期的模型識別碼,例如 esmc-600m-2024-12。

選擇標準:

  • 本地開發/測試: 使用 esm3-open 或 esmc_300m
  • 生產品質: 透過 Forge 使用 esm3-medium-2024-08
  • 最高精度: 透過 Forge 使用 esm3-large-2024-03 或 esmc-6b-2024-12
  • 高吞吐量: 使用 Forge 或 Biohub API,並設定明確的非同步並發限制
  • 成本最佳化: 使用較小的模型,實作快取策略

安裝

從 PyPI 安裝(esm 在 PyPI 上)由 EvolutionaryScale 提供。當前 PyPI 版本:3.2.3(2025 年 10 月 14 日)。需要 Python >=3.12,<3.13。

基本安裝:

uv pip install "esm==3.2.3"

使用 Flash Attention(建議用於 NVIDIA GPU 上更快的推論):

uv pip install "esm==3.2.3"
uv pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

Forge 客戶端隨 esm 套件一同提供 - 無需為 ESM3 或 ESMC Forge 推論進行額外安裝。

驗證

Forge API 存取需要 API 金鑰。切勿在腳本中硬編寫令牌或將其提交到版本控制。

  1. 檢查 ESM_API_KEY 是否已在環境中設定。
  2. 如果沒有,請檢查本地 .env 檔案中是否有 ESM_API_KEY(僅限,不要載入不相關的機密)。
  3. 如果仍然缺失,請在 Biohub 開發者控制台(用於 Biohub API)或 Forge(用於舊版 Forge 託管的 ESM3/ESMC 存取)中建立一個金鑰。
import os

token = os.environ["ESM_API_KEY"]  # 如果未設定則引發 KeyError

當省略 token 時,esm.sdk.client() 會自動讀取 ESM_API_KEY。將端點 URL 固定為受信任的主機,例如 https://forge.evolutionaryscale.ai 或 https://biohub.ai;不要從不受信任的使用者輸入中取得 API 主機。

Biohub 平台: EvolutionaryScale 和 Forge 現在透過 biohub.ai 提供當前的託管模型。SDK 類別名稱可能仍會引用「Forge」。有關 ESMFold2 和 Biohub 特定設定,請參閱 references/biohub-platform.md。

  • 使用結構預測或濕實驗驗證生成的序列

對於嵌入任務:

  • 盡可能批次處理序列以提高效率
  • 快取嵌入以供重複分析
  • 計算相似度時對嵌入進行標準化
  • 根據下游任務需求使用適當的模型大小

對於生產部署:

  • 使用 Forge API 以獲得可擴展性和最新模型
  • 為 API 呼叫實作錯誤處理和重試邏輯
  • 監控令牌使用情況並實作速率限制
  • 考慮使用 AWS SageMaker 部署以獲得專用基礎設施

End-to-end bulk RNA-seq orchestrator — takes raw FASTQ reads through QC and trimming (FastQC, fastp/Trim Galore), alignment and quantification (STAR, Salmon, featureCounts), assembles a gene-level counts matrix, then hands off to differential expression (pydeseq2), pathway/GSEA enrichment (pathway-enrichment), and publication figures (scientific-visualization). Use whenever the user has bulk RNA-seq reads or quant output and wants a complete, reproducible differential-expression workflow — e.g.

cellxgene-census

Query the CZ CELLxGENE Census programmatically for versioned public single-cell and spatial transcriptomics data. Use when you need population-scale cell metadata, gene expression slices, Census summary counts, source H5AD URIs/downloads, embeddings, spatial Census data, or reference atlas comparisons across organisms, tissues, diseases, assays, and cell types. For analyzing your own local single-cell data use scanpy, anndata, or scvi-tools.

Best for Google hardware, noise modeling, and low-level circuit design. For IBM hardware use qiskit; for quantum ML with autodiff use pennylane; for physics simulations use qutip.

citation-management

Comprehensive citation management for academic research. Search OpenAlex, PubMed, and Google Scholar for papers, extract accurate metadata, validate citations, and generate properly formatted BibTeX entries. This skill should be used when you need to find papers, verify citation information, convert DOIs to BibTeX, or ensure reference accuracy in scientific writing.

clinical-decision-support

Prepare and validate research-only clinical decision-support evaluation, evidence-profile, cohort, survival, biomarker/model, privacy, and governance artifacts. Use for aggregate or synthetic research documentation and traceability—not patient care or live clinical operation.

clinical-reports

Create safety-bounded draft structures and run local deterministic checks for clinical case, diagnostic, trial, safety, and aggregate research reports. Use only with synthetic, de-identified, or aggregate inputs and verified source-fact manifests; every output requires qualified review.
