ESM-2: description

Description of ESM-2

ESM-2 is a family of protein sequence encoders that produce representations for downstream protein analyses.

Replace a placeholder description with a sourced functional description (issue #88). Historical releases retain the original value.

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.

review: method: automated-source-review; ai-assisted-source-review; reviewer: claude; reviewer note: Extractor: Claude integrator agent for issue #88. Reviewer: a separate Claude review agent, independent of the extractor; no human review claimed.; date: 2026-10-11; method note: Compared the store diff with origin/main, read each new description against its cited source passage and checked the licence of each new source record.; note: Approved. Checked the new sources' licences against the arXiv abstract pages and Europe PMC, the 7 scFoundation pipeline descriptions against their abstracts, the language-model descriptions against their model cards and reports, and the TAPE architecture figures against the TAPE paper; all correct. The catalogue entries reuse reviewed profile summaries.; receipt: data/omics/qa-descriptions-20261011-b/review.json
