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.

| Rationale ProteinBench measures sequence design on de novo backbones of length 100 to 500, scored by pLDDT and scTM after refolding, the task ProteinMPNN was built for. Every consensus comparison is ProteinGym zero-shot variant effect prediction (DMS Spearman, clinical AUC), where ESM-IF1 scores 0.422 against ProteinMPNN's 0.257. Design quality and variant scoring are different endpoints; both sets of results are kept as reported. The high severity comes from the strong-consensus step cancelling the cross-task step (issue 201).

- method: automated-source-review; ai-assisted-source-review; reviewer: claude; reviewer note: Recorded by a Claude agent; no human review claimed.; date: 2026-10-23; method note: Read every outlier and consensus result of the finding, with its protocol, metric, configuration and source, from the published contested-result page, and compared the tasks, settings and configurations on each side. The original papers were not re-opened.; note: Records where the discrepancy stands, not a correction to any result. No result value or status was changed.
