Scaffold-Lab unconditional generation
Unified evaluation of protein backbone generation methods: 100 backbones per length group are refolded with ProteinMPNN and ESMFold and scored for designability, novelty, diversity and runtime.
Results are recorded on the linked protocols, tasks or configurations listed below. Their settings and evaluations are kept separate.
Overview
An explanatory profile has not yet been reviewed for this record.
Consult the linked sources for architecture or protocol details. Missing evidence is not evidence of a missing capability.
Results on linked records
This benchmark has no results of its own in this release. 7 linked records have results. They are not assigned to the underlying benchmark: each record keeps its own settings and evaluations, and its scores are on its own page.

Baseline coverage
Reference methods help show what a model adds beyond simple controls. We track a null control and a conventional method for each protocol.
0 of 14 active baseline roles have published Rewire measurements in this release. Measurements on a selected protocol do not establish coverage of an entire suite.

Coverage is derived from release 2026-10-23-5347695500ed. Source citations describe the original records; they do not validate an unreviewed baseline proposal. No results have been generated by this audit.
Run instructions
No runnable recipe has been reviewed for this benchmark. Dataset access, model requirements, licences and compute requirements must be checked against its sources before execution.
Evidence
Source checking verifies the cited claim or transcription. It does not establish independent reproduction.
Evidence table
Inspect claims, sources and review details
Trace each statement to its source and review. A context-only reference supports the record generally; it does not verify an individual field. Source checking does not reproduce an experiment.
One row per statement and cited source. Multiple citations are not independent evaluations. Shared locators are labelled explicitly.

- task
- Generate protein backbones unconditionally and evaluate them in a shared refolding pipeline
- scope note
- Per group, 100 backbones with 10 ProteinMPNN sequences each are refolded; a backbone is designable if the refolded structure shares a TM-score above 0.5 with it. Short covers lengths 50 and 100, medium 200 to 500 and long 600 to 1000.

- limitations
- Methods are evaluated only at the lengths the authors could run them at, so the groups hold different method sets.
