Abstract

Protein language models have been tested and proved to be reliable when used on curated datasets but have not yet been applied to full proteomes. Accordingly, we tested how two different machine learning based methods performed when decoding functional information from the proteomes of selected model organisms. We found that protein Language Models are more precise and informative than Deep Learning methods for all the species tested and across the three gene ontologies studied, and that they better recover functional information from transcriptomics experiments. The results obtained indicate that these Language Models are likely to be suitable for large scale annotation and downstream analyses, and we recommend a guide for their use.

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.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
