Evolutionary-scale prediction of atomic level protein structure with a language model
Open accessAbstract
Artificial intelligence has the potential to open insight into the structure of proteins at the scale of evolution. It has only recently been possible to extend protein structure prediction to two hundred million cataloged proteins. Characterizing the structures of the exponentially growing billions of protein sequences revealed by large scale gene sequencing experiments would necessitate a break-through in the speed of folding. Here we show that direct inference of structure from primary sequence using a large language model enables an order of magnitude speed-up in high resolution structure prediction. Leveraging the insight that language models learn evolutionary patterns across millions of sequences, we train models up to 15B parameters, the largest language model of proteins to date. As the language models are scaled they learn information that enables prediction of the three-dimensional structure of a protein at the resolution of individual atoms. This results in prediction that is up to 60x faster than state-of-the-art while maintaining resolution and accuracy. Building on this, we present the ESM Metage-nomic Atlas. This is the first large-scale structural characterization of metagenomic proteins, with more than 617 million structures. The atlas reveals more than 225 million high confidence predictions, including millions whose structures are novel in comparison with experimentally determined structures, giving an unprecedented view into the vast breadth and diversity of the structures of some of the least understood proteins on earth.

TL;DR
The paper introduces ESM-2 protein language models up to 15B parameters and ESMFold, an end-to-end single-sequence structure predictor that reaches atomic-resolution accuracy while being up to 60x faster than state-of-the-art pipelines. It uses ESMFold to build the ESM Metagenomic Atlas, folding over 617 million MGnify90 sequences and identifying more than 225 million high-confidence structures, many novel relative to known sequences and structures.
Key findings
- Scaling ESM-2 from 8M to 15B parameters improves language modeling and structural information: validation perplexity falls from 10.45 to 6.37, unsupervised long-range contact precision (LR P@L) rises from 0.16 to 0.54, and structure-module-only LDDT rises from 0.48 to 0.72. The 15B model reaches TM-score 0.71 on CAMEO and 0.54 on CASP14, 0.064 higher than the 150M ESM-2 model on both.
- ESMFold achieves average TM-score 0.83 on CAMEO and 0.68 on CASP14, compared with AlphaFold2 at 0.88 and 0.85 and RosettaFold at 0.82 on CAMEO. On a single NVIDIA V100 GPU, ESMFold predicts a 384-residue protein in 14.2 seconds, 6x faster than a single AlphaFold2 model, with up to ~60x speedup on shorter sequences; MSA search alone can take over 10 minutes.
- The ESM Metagenomic Atlas folds over 617 million MGnify90 sequences in 2 weeks on ~2,000 GPUs, yielding ~365 million good-confidence predictions (mean pLDDT > 0.5 and pTM > 0.5) and ~225 million high-confidence predictions (mean pLDDT > 0.7 and pTM > 0.7). In a 1-million high-confidence sample, 76.8% have <90% sequence identity to UniRef90, 12.6% have no PDB structure with TM-score > 0.5, and 10.4% have both low structural similarity (TM-score ≤ 0.5) and no close sequence homolog (<30% identity).
- Confidence is well calibrated: for high-confidence predictions (pLDDT > 0.7), CAMEO accuracy is comparable to AlphaFold2 (ESMFold LDDT = 0.83, AlphaFold2 LDDT = 0.85); for very high confidence (pLDDT > 0.9), median all-atom RMSD95 is 1.42 Å and backbone RMSD95 is 0.94 Å.
Methods
- ESM-2 is a BERT-style transformer masked language model trained on UniRef50/UniRef90 sequences, scaled from 8M to 15B parameters, with models trained for up to 500K updates (15B for 270K updates) and evaluated on held-out UniRef50 clusters.
- ESMFold adds a 48-block folding head to a frozen 3B-parameter ESM-2, trained on ~25K PDB clusters covering ~325K experimentally determined chains plus ~12M AlphaFold2-predicted structures; evaluation uses temporally held-out CAMEO (194 proteins) and CASP14 (51 targets) test sets.
- Metagenomic analysis folded MGnify90 sequences of length 20–1024, covering 99% of the database, and used Foldseek, MMseqs2, blastp, and UMAP for structural and sequence similarity analyses.
Limitations
- The paper states that ESMFold was not trained on protein complexes, so complex prediction is out of distribution; it also notes that ablating MSAs for AlphaFold and RosettaFold is an artificial single-sequence setting because those models were not explicitly trained for single sequences.
- The paper states that calibration becomes critical as structure prediction scales, and that current models are far from the limit of scale in parameters, sequence data, and compute.
- Evident from the text: this is a bioRxiv preprint not certified by peer review; ESMFold is less accurate than AlphaFold2 overall on CAMEO (0.83 vs 0.88 TM-score) and CASP14 (0.68 vs 0.85), with a larger gap on hard CAMEO targets (0.45 vs 0.62).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
